This came as somewhat of a surprise to the Chinese. as- well as to us. but this they could understand. They probably also understand the difficulties facing us in our effort to get the guns. tanks. planes. ammunition. and other implements of war in to them. Those things they probably can understand as long as we give them some obvious. positive proof of our friendship. This we can do by repealing the Chinese Exclusion Act. This one gesture of friendship isnot attendant with vast. unsurmountable problems of logistics. It merely requires a vote in this Chamber. a concurrent vote in the other Chamber. and a squiggle of a pen in the hand of our President.
