Mr. Speaker. as I understand the amendment. and I examined it before it was offered. I think it is germane. This bill relates to the relief of certain people in connection with the immigration law. The bill itself would offer them one kind of relief. namely. the return of money. The EECORD---0USE MARclf 29 amendment offersthem another kind of relief. which they understood they were getting when they paid their money. This does not change the nature of the legislation. Ally kind of legislation here can be amended as to the relief of the people to whom the legislation pertains. but instead of giving them their money hack which they. paid to come into the United States. the amendment merely provides that the United States shall carry out the bargain or understanding or assumption and will keep the money and let them come in outside of the quota.
