Mr. President. the second amendment puts them in the preference class. but leaves them within the quota if the marriage occurred after the first of next month. I should also explain to the Senate that the effect of this amendment will be to tighten up the immigration law against wives who are married in the future. It puts wives and husbands on exactly the same basis. If the marriage occurs after the first of next month. all they get is the preference in the quota. they can no longer come in nonquota. I think it is entirely fair that wives and husbands should be treated exactly alike.
