Mr. President. I simply have a word to say. I am not offering this amendment out of any desire In the world to raise areligious question or to .hurt the feelings of any person. but if it is right to exclude a man who admits that he believes in polygamyand that is the .languageof. the bill--then it is not the admission of the belief that constitutes the objection. it is the belief itself. and the possession of such a belief ought not to be determined only by what a man admits to an immigration inspector. but it ought to be determined as is any other question of fact.
