President. I wish to make clear what the amendment in the nature of a substitute proposes to do. It deals with two important features which have been discussed before the Immigration Subcommittee and which are of public importance. One is the elimination of the oriental racial barriers. so that Japanese. Chinese. people of the Republic of India. and the peoples of southeast Asia would no longer be confronted by any racial barrier excluding them from the United States under its immigration policy. This means a great deal to people of Japanese ancestry. and particularly to the Chinese. The substitute would remove the racial barrier.
