Speech #640217965

President. if the Senators reasoning is correct. then. of course. this section of the bill. section 22. is absolutely useless and may be discarded as mere verbiage. The Senator contends that the identity of the wife becomes merged in tile identity of the husband. This bill that provides that when an alien becomes naturalized he under certain restrictions may send for his wife. Why. if the identity of the wife became merged in the identity of the naturalized citizen. his wife could come in without any restriction at all. But we are not dealing with the right of various people to vote. The right to vote is entirely different from the right to obtain admission to this country.
