I will. A person who comes to this country charged with being liable to become a public charge and is excluded for that reason can go back abroad and at the expiration of a year he can come again. and he is not excluded if at that time he is not liable to become a public charge. A person who comes to this country suffering from a contagious disease and is excluded for that reason can and does. as the records of the Immigration Bureau will bear out. go back to the country from which he came. is treated for the disease. recovers from it. and comes again to this country. There are two cases. Every alien who sailed out of New York Harbor today or yesterday. or who sails tomorrow. excluded under existing law because he is liable to become a public charge or afflicted with a contagious disease. if this law is adopted is- forever excluded.
