In regard to the other salary. I want to repeat to the gentleman from Arkansas that this is the same salary he has been getting. namely. $1.000 from the lump sum of the head tax of the immigrants. and instead of having his salary in that state we withdrew the thousand dollars from the lump sum of the head tax and made his salary $5.000. In regard to the other salary that the gentleman makes a point of order upon. Mr. Chairman. I will say this gentleman is the assistant commissionergeneral. and for the last twelve months. or very nearly twelve months. he has been acting commissionergeneral and was really entitled to that gentlemans salary all this time.
