They can return. if inside the 3 per cent limit. but it must be perfectly clear to the gentleman that they have had two years and a half in which to get back. The exemption which we gave them at that time In order to let them come back excused them from all the provisions of the immigration laws. it let them be physically defective. contract laborers. stowaways. illiterate. crippled. and so forth. In other words. regardless of their condition. mentally or* physically. generously we gave them that time and waived the law. and if any of them have stayed out more than two years and a half I think we may well assume that they do not care now to return to the United States as a privileged class.
