Mr. Chairman. section 24 of the immigration law provides that in order to enforce the contractlabor law the Secretary of Commerce and Labor can expend up to $50.000 a year without filing vouchers. if he certifies that it is not for the best interest of the public that the vouchers should be filed. The Committee on Immigration came to the conclusion when the bill was in the Fiftyninth Congress that if you are to enforce the contractlabor lawand it ought to be enforced. it is on the statute booksthe only way you can do it is to allow the Secretary to go outside of the civilservice law and hire men. not only here but abroad. to detect contract labor. at its inception. if necessary. and follow the laborers into the large factories and places of business here where they go under the inducements of the~employers.
