If it passes congress only the most distinguished foreign stars will be admitted to America, and then only if they can prove that no American actors can satisfactorily take their places.

This placed the speakers in the interesting position of having to admit the bill was a good bill and thereby risk offending the alien guests or declare it a bad bill and risk offending the pro-American audience. As a result, before the debate had progressed far there was nothing to debate. Everybody admitted there should not be any considerable number of alien actors admitted to clutter up the stage and take the jobs of native players.
