I am very much afraid that the presence of this paragraph will weaken the law. We have witnessed here today a great many demands for exception in favor of this class or that class. and I doubt the wisdom of retaining this paragraph. It provides for the temporary admission of people from the countries named. though they will. of course. have to pass the literacy test and pay the head tax and can not be brought in as contract laborers. I think that the bill could be made applicable to border travel without weakening it in this manner. I shall have to submit this. however. to the judgment of my colleagues.
