Mr. Chairman. I think we ought to be frank about this matter. The CommissionerGeneral of Immigration has been receiving a salary of $4.000 a year. and $1.000 additional from the Chineseexclusion fund. The man who recently occupied this place was an effective. an efficient. and honest commissionergeneral. He enforced the Chineseexclusion act in so efficient a manner that he was directed by a superior not to be so active in the enforcement of the act. He protested to the Committee on Appropriations two or three years ago that because of these instructions the Chinese were coming into this country in violation of the law.
