It might lead to .complications under certain conditions in this country that we would not be very willing to face. Here is the wife of a foreigner. an influential one. who wants to come to this country. We have certain immigration laws that might protect us under certain conditions. but she pleads this very amendment in her behalf. To all intents and purposes she is aforeigner.. her heart and life ar6 cast abroad. and yet she pleads her nativity as an excuse for enjoying all the privileges of a native American citizen. It seems to me that there are enough American men attractive enough for the American women to find their husbands here. but. if there are not. then I am not going to vote for a law to foster this thing of American capital hunting some effete European title. I should like to make the provision more restrictive. if possible. If they want to swap American dollars for some kind of European titles. let "theim take the consequences of their act. but let us not upset our entire immigration law to suit the fancy of some woman who thinks that her money has procured all that she can get in America. but who also desires to buy some kind of a title that will give her the right to play the fool.
