That is not all. In another part of the same section is the provision that any alien who shall in any way assist a prostitute shall be deemed to be unlawfully within the United States. According to this bill. if you should assist a poor woman upon the streets or in a home. and you were an alien and helped to assist a home for erring women. you are liable to be deported. and under the terms of the bill not only are you liable. but the bill expressly provides in its language that if an alien should give money to a home for erring women he should be deported from the United States. That is not all. but under the provision if an alien woman comes here innocent and young and an American citizen debauches her. she is to be sent abroad on the world. although her fault is laid at our door. and it makes no difference that the alien woman might be brought into this country when 2 years old and seduced when she reached a much older age. after she had been in the country for years. Seduced by an American citizen. led by an American citizen into prostitution. she would be sent out of the country by this pnlightened country.
