Mr. Speaker. the literacy test is absolutely no test at all. I do not remember exactly the question put by the gentleman from Kentucky because I did not suppose I would have time to answer it. but the educational test does not go to the question of our real citizenship. The foreigners in my county and my city. whether from Italy or Scandinavia. are the people whose children are the first to learn. and foremost many times in taking prizes In the schools. The children of the poor. unfortunate men who come to this country and who have been unable to get an education are invariably foremost in our schools.
