It does. except for section 4 (e). a provision which the distinguished Senator from New York and. I believe. the former distinguished Senator from New York. Robert Kennedy. put into the law to preserve the right of nonEnglishspeaking voters to register in the State of New York. or any other State having such persons applying for registration. preserving their right to be accepted for a literacy test. In other words. they would not be barred from registering because they could not pass a test in the English language if they could pass one in their own language. So that would remain in the act. if the amendment offered by the junior Senator from Alabama were adopted.
