As I understand the Senator from Massachusetts. this proposal did not originate with anyone of the conferees. either in the Senate or in the House. The Members of the Senate and of the House have given diligent thought and study to this subject for many months. It does seem to me that a gratuitous suggestion. coming from the head of one of our departments. that dealing with immigration should not find a lodgment in this law. when it affects the spirit of our country. and more particularly the right of expatriation. for which this country stood alone 100 years ago.
