16 S0 MY ENTR 1. IFBL PASSE Amendment Favors Wives and Children of Aliens Who Came Prior to 1924. Many aliens who came to this country alone would be permitted to bring their wives and children to America to join them without re- gard to quota restrictions under an amendment to the imm tion avt passed by the Senate yesterday. The only requirements are that the father must have been in this coun- try prior to July 1, 1924, and ‘ttat he has applied for naturalization. There is a limitation of 35,000 on the number who may come in under the measure. This change in the law was adopt- ed as an amendment to a House bill which would permit the return to this country without regard to guota restrictions of American woman who lost their citizenship by marrying foreigners. The amendment to admit the wives and children of aliens already here was proposed by Senator W. lsworth of New York and supported by Sena- tors Copeland of New York and Walsh of Massachusetts. It met strong opposition, however, and passed by the narrow margin of 39 to . The adoption of this amendment makes it necessary to semd the bill back to the House for action. J. M. SHEPHERD DIES.
