There is not any question about that at all. They can not get a passport. and they can not get a certificate of good character. Of course. if it is your purpose to exclude those people from coming herethat is. people who are opposed to the Russian system but who do believe in the system of government we have in the United Sfates. and who would like to see that system of government adopted in RussiaIf you want to exclude the subJects of Russia who so believe when disheartened in the fight for Russian freedom they seek an asylum in this country. and if you wish to deny them that asylum. stand for this provision that the conferees have put into this immigration bill without a moments consideration from either branch of Congress. I started with my opening word upon this subject to say something in criticism of that practice by conference committees. We have seen it many times.
