That would not be equal treatment. The same thing is true as to military service. As I say. tife power to regulate immigration and deal with aliens is an instance of sovereignty. and the right of selfpreservation is the first law of nations as it is. of individuals. and education is necessary to selfpreservation. So I reason out. to my own satisfaction at least. that we have a right to make a different law as to the education of aliens than as to citizens. unless it violates treaty obligations. and I want to be perfectly frank about that. I wrote the Secretary of State some time ago. and sent him a copy of this bill. and asked him if lie thought it violated any of our treaty olligations.
