! Mr.. GERRISH of Lisbon: !: Mr.
Speaker. move the acceptance of
the majority report, and wish to say
that my objection to the original bill
was, first,, that II person failed to
geta Certificate It was for the reason
OF this disease in question, thereby
branding their presence, as it were,
| with scarlet letter. In the redraft
this word is not mentioned. It SIM
i ply, brings up the question of active
!! contagious disease. which might in
clude tuberculosis as we'll as the 9TH
er mentioned condition. My second
reason was on the uncertainty of the
test. Ifyou will examine this redraft,
you will see that the clean bill of
health is dependent upon the physi-
clans opinion--his opinion-not on
the tests. I think this bill must work
great good. 1t can do no harm.

Ought to pass" was accepted.
