Well. of course. this committee has no jurisdiction over the immigrants coming into this country. Now. another point that has been raised here is the question of what will it cost tile Government if this bill is enacted into law? It costs our travelers and our commercial men who go abroad anywhere from three to four viss. and if the vis6 is $10 each. vhiclh is the normal sum in most countries. it amounts from $30 to $40. and add to that the passport of $10. making a total of about $5).000.000 to American citizens for passports and visas. This bill ainis to do away with this unequal burden upon American citizens amounting to $5.000.000. when we get in return only $680.000 for the vists of nonimmigrant aliens.
