The Hindus are British subjects. and I suppose citizens. in a way. of the British Empire. and to exclude them by class and name no one else might be considered quite objectionable. or to exclude other nationalities who are not entitled to become citizens in a class might be considered objectionable. but to exclude the two together as one class. and cover them all. I think no one has found was objectionable. I suppose it does not make any change in actual name whether you say Hindus and persons who can not become eligible to become citizens of the United States by naturalization. or whether you say Hindus. but to combine them. I think. takes away a lot of the bitterness. and it accomplishes the exact purpose.
