I could not say exactly. but I should say probably 80.000 or 88.000. I ams only speaking of those who came here up until July 1. 1924. and who have wives and minor children. and when I state 80.000. or whatever the exact figure may be. this includes minor children of these h. 3bands. Of course. it is true that under the law after they become citizens you can not stop them from bringing in their wives and clildren. but in the meantime they are permitted to roanm around this country without a mate. They are prevented from seeing their children. and they lire prevented from giving their children an American education. I am Hot opposed to humane restrictions of immigration. but I do say that it is unjust for this country not to permit the wives aod children to come here where the families have been separated.
