One or two in several thousand! And I venture to say that my distinguished friend from southern California is probibly the only Representative from any State who has had even one or two of these 85.000 Mongolians I resident in this country ask him to secure this extension of time which is alleged to be so important and vital to their existence here in the United States. The despotic Six Companies of San Francisco. which originally advised and assisted the unregistered Chinese to disobey the law and insolently defy its mandatesthese companies have offered no assurance that they will counsel their slavish subjects to comply with the registration requirement. Neither the President nor any of the Departments of the Government have directly recommended anextension. Nor is it claimed that the exclusion law is unconstitutional since that question has now been decided by the Supreme Court. The United States district and circuit courts before which complaints have been filed under the law have in numerous cases held that Chinese laborers residing in the United States at the time of the passage of the law and f ailing to register as required. and no excuse being shown. must be deported from the country. That is the law. Those are the decisions.
