The Interstate Commerce Commission advised us that these laws c6uld not be made applicable to railways. - They are not now applicable to railways. Therefore. unless we wish to confuse the statistics. we ought to pass this bill. Personally I do not think the great body of American people care very much how many Canadians come into this country or go out of it. while a great proportion of our population. for one reason or another. care a great deal how many Europeans or Asiatics come in. I was one of the men who drafted this section 12. under which we can find out accurately about the number of Europeans and Asiatics that leave our shores every year. It is beneficial legislation. and I want the statistics to be collected as accurately as possible. If you pass this bill and wipe out these inaccurate statistics relative to temporary absences of Canadians domiciled in this country. you* aid in making the statistics more accurate.
