Mr. Chairman. after listening to the discussion of this matter by the very able gentleman from Pennsylvania last Wednesday I was of the opinion there was much force in his suggestion. I therefore asked the opinion of the Department of Labor. that has to construe these questions as to immigration. and submitted that very phase of it to them. and the suggestion that I have offered in my amendment is their suggestion. namely. "whose status is such that he may become a citizen by naturalization." The objection. and tlie only objection I have. to the amendment of the gentleman from Pennsylvania is the use of the word " resident."
