Perhaps by my silence I acquiesced in excluding the admission of people who teach the unlawful destruction of property. That being the case. I hesitate to opposetheir deportation. but I certainly think that the amendment of the gentleman from Pennsylvania should not prevail. I believe the gentleman from Rhode Island . the gentleman from Illinois . and other gentlemen are absolutely correct in saying that the wording of this committee amendment must be changed. The amendment as it reads now would require the deportation of any man who advocates the overthrow by force or violence of organized government. Undoubtedly. as some gentleman suggested. such a provision of law would have required the deportation of Kossuth. the Hungarian. or of Quesada. the agent for the Cuban Junta. Mr. Chairman. the amendment which the gentleman from Rhode Island will offer puts the matter in the proper shape.
