Holding that thought in mind a momeit. .this bill undertakes to particularize. It names :idiocy. insanity. imbecility. feeblemindedness. epilepsy. constitutional psycopathic inferiority. and chronic alcoholism. Unless an immigrant is -afflicted with one of those specific ailments. he can not .be excluded under theterms of the bill. If the bill had contained the .general language "or other mental inferiority of such degree as to render him incapable of -earning a living." you would then have -covered the case as you intended to cover :it. I undertaketo say that theterms employed.broad and sweeping as they may appear tobe. do not cover all the casesthe committee desires to reach and Which I. at least. want to have covered.
