ir. Chairman. this commission is proposed to be created for -the spec:fic purpose of determining quotas. whereas the previous inunigration coimission was created for the general purpose of dealing with all immigration questions. and this bill is a bill to lix quotas. The analogy is perfect and complete. I suppose. Mr. Chairman. there would be no doubt that if the Committee on Immigration had reported this proposed section as a part of the bill. it would have been regarded as a proper activity of the committee. md the section would have been held in order. While I realize that is not determinative upon the decision of the Chair. the question is whether a Member of the House should not have some opportunity to present a proposal of this sort even though the committee has not carried it in Its recommendation.
