I have not the time. I want to further say that we need not fear the foreign immigrant who would be excluded by this test on account of crime. Schrank. the miscreant who shot exPresident Roosevelt. would receive a welcome at our ports under this law. because he was born in foreign lands and there learned to read. More than this. the three great consummated tragedies of our Nation were (ommitted by men all of whom. if knocking at our doors. could have met this new insufficient test. The great but gentle McKinley fell at the hands of Czolgosz. a man of some reading as well as education.
