tax on immigrants coming to the United
States In vessels not OF the United states.
MIR, Nelson republican Of Minnesota op-
posed the head tax idea, as tax On hu-
manity. lie particularly opposed the Elklns
amendment, as 10 purportC1 to aid Amert-
can shipping by putting the head tax on inn
migrants coming on foreign steamship lines.
which controlled % per cent OF the imini-
grafton business Mr.. Nelson said that the
American merchant marine could not be
built up on any such methods
Mr. Elkirs said the foreign steamship lines
raneacked Europe TO get immigrants send
ing paupgr5 ana criminals. There was about
SS0OoO1O in this business, and he believed
the American ships should get a. good share
Of H.
Mr. Chandler opposed mixing aid to the
American lines with the immigration ques-
ton
Mr.. Perkins Of California supported the
amendment saying every aid should be
given to the American lines TO offset the
heavy subsidies given English, French and
German lines. The Pacific coast Was over
run with the scrylo labor Of China until
the government restricted this class OF
immigration. But another danger mcnaced
that coast for the japanese che Yankees
OF Asia were coming in great numbers
the JapauCse government subsid2ing Jap
anCse lines at the rate OF $4,000 for one
round trip He felt It to be most desirable
that a tax be put on these Japanese i'm
migrants, as would be the effect under the
Elkins amendment
Mr. Hill. democrat Of New York spoke
against the amendment, as proposed os.en-
sibly for revenue and actually for something
else. II senators desired 20 raise revenue
they could introduce revenue bills. This
amendment embodied the principle of
protection run mad"
Mr.. Wocott, republican, of Colorado said
the amendment only added TO the many
privileges enjoyed by the American lines,
and urged that this amendment went too
far In placing an unjust burden on immi-
grants.
MIR. Elkns gaid the American lines and
its officers knew nothing Of this amend
ment.
Mr. Wocott disclamed any purpose to
intimate that the American lines knew OF
the amendment. The senator (EikinsJ in
tended to surprise the American lines with
Christmas present, Mr.. Wolcott said
After further debate the Eltins amend
ment was laid on the table without divis-
ion.
Mr.. Morgan offered an amendment ex-
cludlng from naturalization those who can
not read the Ten Commandments and the
constitution. 1t was tabled. Yeas, 40;
nays, l6.
This cleared the way for the final vote
on the bill which on a roll call, was passed
as amended. Yeas, 50; nays, 10. Those
voting in the negative were: Blackburn.
Blanchard, Caffery, Lindsay. Mills Mitchell
of Wisconsin, Morgan, Murphy, Palmer
and Villas all democrats. AS The measure
as passed is a substitute for the house bill,
a conference was ordered. with Messrs.
Lodge. Chandler and Faulkner as conferees
on the part of the senate. At i:l5 the SEN
ate had a brief executive session and ad-
journcd till Monday.
