I am coming to that. We ask that you permit children of citizens between the ages of 18 and 21 years. to be included in the monquota status. and we ask that you permit those declarants who have not yet obtained their papers. but who immigrated prior to the act of 1924. to send for their wives and children as nonquota immigrants. I submit to the most extreme restrictionist in the House. that such a demand is not unreasonable. It would not in the slightest disturb existing labor conditions. because under the existing law the Secretary of Labor may place under bond any person who asks admission whom lie believes may become a public charge. I am willing to place every mother and father of a citizen included in this nonquota status under bond- that they will not work in the competitive labor market. Surely such modest requests should receive a response from the Committee oi Immigration.
