I acknowledge frankly that the gentleman from California is correct. I had forgotten that for the moment. I am in sympathy with that part of the bill which attempts to put a higher head tax on the bird of passage. and I am glad to see the part of the bill which exempts children. but the gentleman from Alabama and myself being on the same ground on this amendment. I want to say to him. until there is proof that we need more than $6. do not let us go up any higher. I am willing to go as high as $6 for the purpose of paying the expenses of the administration of the law.
