The bill provides for the registration of aliens. That is all it provides for. A number of bills concerning aliens have been presented to the Committee on Immigration during the present session of Congress. One bill on the calendar which has already been passed was much more drastic in its nature than the bill under consideration. With the idea of undertaking to accomplish something along the line of registration of foreigners or aliens. I introduced Senate bill 2830. which is Calendar No. 978. and which was referred to the Committee on Immigration and reported by that committee favorably to the Senate without amendment. Mr. President. the reason I am interested in the passage of the bill at this time is because of the fact that as a part of the method of registration of aliens we propose to use the mechanics of the census takers for next year.
