That decision only goes to the effect that they are not aliens under the immigration laws. In my opinion. that decision makes it all the more necessary that now. in this law. we shall take the position tlat they shall be excluded by this statute. and such is tile effect of my amendment. Now. just one word about it. so that every one may understand the import of the amendment. I do not intend to argue it. It is proposed by the committee to exclude the inhabitants of all the islands adjacent to Asia within certain territorial limits. except those islands now possessed by the United States. in other words. the Filipino is excepted because of our relations to the Pil.ippine Islands.
