It is true. as suggested by the junior Senator from Louisiana . that Chinese upon Chinese ships may come into our ports. and Japanese may come into our ports upon Japanese ships. Chinese may not come upon Japanese ships nor Japanese upon Chinese ships. Nor under this bill may aliens who are excluded under our immigration laws enter our ports as seamen upon the ships of other nations. There may be some who would like to exclude orientals from coming upon ships of their own country. Such a course has not been deemed proper. indeed. as I have stated. it would be an embargo. and this bill does not seek an embargo.
