Former President Taft Still Opposes
Literary Test for Immigrants

Il have not changed my views in the
matter of the Burnett immigration bill

liam Howard Taft to Representative
Siegel of New York. who is gathering
material to aid in the big fight which is
brewing on the immigration bill now
before the House. The letter from Mr..
Taft is dated January 16. and speaks of
his veto Of the Burnett bill because Of
clause excluding aliens by means OF
a literacy test similar to that proposed
in the bin vetoed by President Wilson
in the last Congress, and to the one
proposed in the bill now reported.
Representative Siegel also has re-
ceived a letter from President Butler
Of Columbia University, New York, in
which the educator says he has never
been convinced that the literacy test is
a judicious one to apply to immi
grants"
