And suppose some one in the United States goes to London to be. say. correspondent for the New York Times. Under the treaty. he can go and stay by the year. Now. in order to bring the China situation on a parity with other countries. this bill has been introduced to correct the immigration act of 1924first. so that other countries without treaties with the United States can now make treaties identical with those made by the other major countries prior to 1924. and. secondly. we correct the "merchant" situation. The bill does not add to the immigration of the United States. It really restricts. because it puts the orientals who come here under their treaty as merchants in the attitude of international merchants. so that if they come hereafter. they will have to come under the provisions of this bill.
