He is not an American citizen. but he may enter the United States. with few restrictions. So long as they are under the American flag we should permit them to enter. This bill proposes to limit the immigration to 50 until the time. when the final independence will be granted. After that time. it was the intention of the committee that an amendment should be offered whereby immigration of Filipinos would be upon the same basis as .that of China and Japan but because of the way the bill is presented for consideration today. that amendment can not be offered. This will be satisfactory to the Filipinos so we are advised. and I hope such an amendment may be added in the Senate or in conference.
