The fitst difference is that our system of visi certificates en. i rely replaces the present method of stamping visds on passports. That is for the purpose of making it a purely diplomatic function. We feel that our plan is more supportable under international law than is the immigration certificate plan provided for under the House bill. The mechanics of the thing are substantially the same and the end to be attained is substantially the same. The next differenceand it is in my judgment the most importantis that the House bill provides for a large group of what are called nonquota immigrants. They are said to be the relatives of American citizens. children. parents. husband. or wife of an American citizen. Of course. it will be understood that under the House bill an alien who testifies that he is the parent or spouse or cisld of an American citizen cheats us if he is fraudulent.
