Suppose it does cost $6.000.000. The Chinese laborers send home to China annually some $27.000.000 made out of us. The gentleman from Kentucky made the argument shortly thereafter that these men could not all be deported at once. that their deportation would drag on over years. and for that reason the court calendars must be cleared by an extension of time. That argument defeats the other. because. if it is going to take yeairs to send them away. we need not make our full appropriation of $6.000.000 during this session. We can make it from time to time. and I think that after one substantial appropriation we should find that the necessity had disappeared. that is. we should find that they were not all subject to deportation. that many would go away voluntarily. and that the whole contest would be ended. What is the present position arising from this argument as to the cost? What does it lead to in the first place?
