That committee. in turn. had to pass upon the proposition as to whether there was anything in the matter of lowering postage rates to some of the foreign nations which would be detrimental to our foreign relations. We have in the pending bill a brandnew section. one which. according to my recollection. was not in the bill of last year. It is exclusively. fully. and completely within the jurisdiction of the Immigration and Naturalization Subcommittee of the Judiciary Committee. and at no time was It ever referred to that committee. Representative CELLER continued with his speech as follows: Now this provision I have read throws out the window. at the discretion of the Director mentioned in this bill and the Attorney General. all the legislative Immigration restrictions that we have built up over the years. Representative CELLER was absolutely correct. He said. further: It throws them to the winds. and if the Attorney General and the Director wish to admit Fascists.
