Mr. Chairmnn. ifthe amendment is agreed to. the paragraph will read as follows: All aliens shall prove to the satisfaction of the proper immigration officer. with the right of appeal to the Secretary of Commerce and Labor. that they are seeking admission to the United States solely for the purpose of escaping from religious persecution. In other words. Mr. Chairman. it makes the language plain and puts it in such a way that there can be no mistake in the meaning that Congress desires the alien to have the right to appeal from the decision of the inspector wherever it Is wanted.
