The contention will be under this provision. and I am not opposing the provision as it is because I am not here defending the steamship company of any kind or description. Now. the mother of this soldier boy is admissible. but the grandchild is not admissible. But I am trying to point out that we have not alleviated the grievances created by this quota law or relieved it of the suffering caused by its enactment. We still make the question of admission not a matter of resi-. dence but a mutter of nativity. Now. take the BrestLitovsk cases which have arisen during the past year. The department should not make a report which rules one time one way and another time another way. When in grave doubt. the vits having been issued by our consuls and the fees of $10 in each case collected. the immigrants should properly be given the benefit of the doubt. The United States District Court of New York has ruled that when a minister is in this country he has a right to send for his wife and minor children. regardless of .the quota law. Has the departmentfollowed that decision? No. it declines to do so.
