I will say to the gentleman that the purpose of that is because we are constantly getting foreigners over here from those countries who do not come within the scope of section 4. which says it shall not apply to. accredited officials of foreign Governments nor their suites. families. guests. or servants. There are frequently men who come here not accredited but for the purpose of consultations. negotiations. and so forth. I do think the suggestion of the gentleman should not prevail. because the purpose of this. would be to keep those men who are subject to military duty over in their own country. and while the President was opposed to the immigration bill. I do not believe that he would oppose the idea that these people who are subject to military duty should stay over in their own. country and fight its battles. That: was the reason that this authority was given the President.
