As it is worded it would exclude all natives of Asia and all natives of Australia. because Australia is east of the line which the amendment proposes to make. It would exclude all Australians. and I am not sure but all Europeans. whether they were white. black. or other color. It would exclude them as Asiatic laborers. if they were laborers. I am sure this House does not want to go on record for any such Indefinite. foolish proposition as that. and I say to you now if the amendment is properly worded and then offered by the other side of the House I shall support it. notwithstanding what has been said by gentlemen on the other side of the House about myself playing politics. I shall support any reasonable exclusion provision always. because since I have been here I have been active and urgent and constantly desirous that legislation of this kind might be made a part of the law of this country.
