I have also Introduced a bill which I have urged In prior years. being now known as H. R. 5645. Under this bill an immigrant who has obtained a proper American visa prior to July 1. 1924. and who has paid the regular fee therefor and shall have otherwise qualified be admissible into this country without the quota. " The number of aliens involved under this bill Is not large. In fact. it amounts to a very small number. " No reason exists why these men who have paid a visa fee and who have done everything in their power to qualify themselves for admission to the United States. should be barred from this country only because we have seen fit to amend our immigration laws without taking care of the situation." For the foregoing reasons. I can not concur in the report of the committee and ask the House that this report be voted down.
