That attracted my attention. The chairman says that a man may be mentally defective. and yet. provided he can earn a living. he can still come into this country. but if he can not earn a living. or has failed to show his ability to do so. the bill will exclude him. If the ability to accumulate money is to be a test. neither Thomas Jefferson nor George Washington. if they had tried to emigrate to this country. could have been admitted. for they lost money in their business. and the blessed Savior himselfnever would have gotten within the 3mile limit.
