Then. it must be apparent to everyone that tnder some circumstances it will be pbysically impossible either for the immigrant or for the steamshkp company to know with absolute certainty that the illmigrant comes within the quota. Therefore. why should not the relaxation of the rule apply to the immigrant as well as to the steamship company? Why should the immigrant who in good faith is seeking to conform to the provisions of the law liiting immigration be penalized or be deported and at the same time the steamship company which transports him be relieved from penalty? Why should not the department have express authority to admit in excess of the quota under cilcunstances which show the immigrant is not to blame?
