sion in reference to exclusion shall
read as follows: Persons who are
not eligible to become citizens of the
United States by naturalization un-
less otherwise provided for by treaty,
convention or agreement"
1t is believed by Hawaiian citizens
who are now in Washington that the
proposed new immigration law will
not materially change coditiors in ref
erence to emigration to Hawaii. The
proposed new law is in the main a
revision of existing law and contains
no radical changes excepting the one
referred to in regard to naturalization,
and this seems to have been included
through inadvertence.
Section 6 of the proposed law con-
tains some changes in the language
of the provision permitting territorial
aid in securing emigration, but the
material provisions of the present
act are not changed.

With two bills introduced in the
