We learned that the state and the church must be kept apart. but at the same time there is nothing. that should be so dear to a man as his religious conviction. From tile time that the psalmist sung of his love for Jerusalem and of his right hand forgetting its cunning ifhe forg6t Jerusalem down to now it has been the devotion that men and women have had for God as they know Him that has told the story of heroism. and their persecution is largely the history of bloodshed in the world. We have provided in this billand no man can deny itthat under the law any religious refugee from any land under the sun can find his asylum here. We have provided also for the political refugee. If we have not. it must be done before this bill goes into law. But after that asylum has been provided in those two particular cases.
