Mr. President. I am favorable to the House provision making the restriction against immigration for the period of 14 months. instead of the proposed amendment of the committee. which permits immigration upon a percentage basis. Therefore I have moved to strike out the provision recommended by the committee. and to insert in lieu thereof the provision of the House bill. making a provision against immigration for 14 months. With the adoption of this amendment there would follow the provisos as recommended by the committee. which make certain exceptions to the general restricti6n against immigration. I do not think it is advisable at the present time to permit of immigration as suggested by the committee amendment. but that we should have this unqualified restriction. as was proposed by the House. with certain provisos. as suggested by the Senate committee. Therefore I offer this amendment to the amendment. and hope that it will be adopted.
