Mr. President. In this mornings issue of the Washington Post I notice a statement that there is a loophole in the immigration bill. or. as it is called in another part of the same article. a "joker." which will allow the admission of an indefinite number of Asiatics regardless of the exclusion clause. I only rise to say that the clause In question was in the bill as it passed the House and was in the bill as it passed the Senate. in exactly the same words. It was not in conference and is not some artifice of the conferees. but is a clause upon which both Houses were in agreement.
