So I again propound the question whether a man. otherwise qualified. ought not to come under the shelter of an exception like that now in the bill. if he is persecuted for the reason that he belongs to a particular race of human beings. I think the word "racial" ought to be added to the pending amendment. We could at this time. even in this bill if we wish.. escape the danger the Senator from Colorado apprehends with reference to the Asiatic races or any other undesirable people whom we do not wish to enter into our political life because of the race to which they belong by appropriate legislation to that end. Mr. President.
