The last Senate passed a bill admitting fou fiancdes. four girls who had become engaged to four Italians who fought in our Army. Those girls came and could not be admitted on account of illiteracy. The soldier boys. who were engaged to those girls could have taken passage. on the ship on which the girls. could have been deported and gone out beyond the 3mile limit. and married them and returned later with those illiterate girls as wives. The House passed such a personal bill. giving relief.. and would do it again. Now. if there is a preference at all there is no reason on earth why a man should not be permitted to express a preference for his fiancee. and there is no reason why she should not be able to impress the consular officer over there and receive preference from. him..
