Now. the fact that a man can not read and write is no evidence of character. Because a man can not read and write is no reason that you are going to improve conditions by shutting him out. If you are going to shut out undesirable people. shut them out. Because a man is ground down to poverty and has not had an opportunity to improve himself. is It a crime? Many immigrants come from countries where public education is unknown. Does anybody believe that poverty is a crime? Still you would be led to believe so in listening to the speeches of the gentlemen in the interest of this bill.
