I do not believe that if we analyzed legislation we would find ourselves justified in passing any law. no matter what be its character. unless we could base it upon a civil reason. and that civil reason is to secure a higher grade of citizenship. If we look at this problem from that standpoint. I think we will find that our legislation on the immigration question in the past has been put upon that basis. There is a review in section 3 of the legislation on this question. and I find certain elements here. One is exclusive. another is restrictive. and another is selective.
