The bone of con- tention in this bill was the so-called literacy test which provides that all aliens over sixteen years of age, phys- ically capable of reading, Shall1 not be admitted; to! this country, unless they can read'not less than thirty words In ordinary use, printed in plainly legi- ble type. In'".the English language or in some other language or dialect (in eluding Hebrew or Yiddish).--^i---: This paragraph, of the bill contains a proviso to the effect^thatr/any: ad missible alien or any alien heretofore or hereafter legally admitted, or any citizen of the United States may bring in or send, for 'his father or grand- father over fifty-five years of age,- his wife^ his mother, his grandmother, or his unmarried or widowed daughter, if otherwise admissible, whether such relative can read or not. Ll'tsracy Test! History. • An immigration bill carrying some sort of literacy test provision has passed the senate four times and the hOUse three times. Such a bill was vetoed by President Cleveland in 1897, at which time the house passed the bill over the veto, but the senate sus- tained the veto. Again a similar, bill was passed in the last congress and vetoed by"*President Taft-. at which lime the senate passed the , bill over the-veto,; but« the house "by a- very narrow margin sustained the veto. .■■'I think no one will claim that a literacy test offers an ideal means for elf ting immigration. It must be ad- mitted that notwithstanding such a test many a bad man will get in and many an honest one will be excluded.
