On and after March 1. 1926These words being in italics and being a change from. July .1. .924. No alien ineligible to citizenship shall be admitted to the United States unless such alien (1) Is admissible as a nonquota immigrant under the provisions of subdivision (b). (d). or (g) of section 4. or (2) is the wife. or the unmarried child under 18 years of age. of an immigrant admissible under such subdivisions (d). and is accompanyin.g or following to join him. or (3) is not an immigrant as defined In section 3: Provided. however. That the provisionis of this paragraph shall not apply to the nationals of those countries wvith which the United States. after the enactment of this act. shall have entered into treaties. by and wvith the advice and consent of the Senate. for the restriotion of immigration. I call the Senators attention to the fact that the words in Italics are new language entirely. not in either the bill as it passed the House or in the bill as it passed the Senate. and as the Congressman from the conference committee told me. that was the proviso the President wanted to go Into the bill. Of course. it could only be put into the bill by suspension of the rules. because the rules of both the Senate and the House prevent such an addition.
