Mr. President. in view of the request made by the Senator from Massachusetts. and also by the Senator from Illinois. I recognize that the vote to test the passage of this bill is going to be upon the literacy test. and that the pending amendment would involve the fate of the bill so far as the literacy test is concerned. In view of the facts brought out by them. I should like to ask a ruling of the Chair on this proposal. supplemental to what the Senator from Massachusetts has suggested: I take it that tomorrow there will be a repetition of the same condition that exists today.
