IMMIGRATION LAWS
NEW BILL PASSED
[AUSTRALIAN AND N.Z. CABLE AH3N.I New York, Feb. 0. The Immigration Bill was passed over the veto and is now law despite the protests of Japan on the literary test.
Two States allied land bills were killed by the Administration’s influence, hoping to keep the friendship of Japan which lauds the President’s answer to Germany.
The Immigration Bill has been fought for 20 years and vetoed by three Presidents.
[On the President vetoing a bill it may be nassed by two-thirds of the members of the Senate and House of Representatives and then become law.)
