Speaker. I am an ardent and ultrarestrictionist. but I think the amendment proposed by the gentleman from Ohio and accepted by the House makes this bill very acceptable. and in its present form it is humane and wholesome legislation. This measure will enable some 400 White Russians who fled to this country during the revolution. and who now cannot be deported under existing law. to become American citizens. To deport them. even if we could. under the present Russian regime. would simply mean to send them to Siberia or the firing squad. I do not care to consume any more of my time.
