Senate tightens immigration with alien purpose disclosure
Washington December 14 thousands of aliens who returned home to aid in the war would be barred from reentry under a Senate amendment. Reed's temporary laborer ban was adopted, and the house provision barring crime of political nature remains. The Senate added that aliens must state their purposes, duration of stay, and citizenship intent. Poindexter's bid to deny citizenship ineligibles failed, while Phelan's bid to bar so-called picture brides was defeated.
