Healthy. strong. vigorous. ambitious. full of hope. And now see the Commissioner of Immigration. or whatever the authority might be. aidmit the father. the mother. and the daughter. but turn back the 16yearold boydeport him. and thus separate and break up tie family. Can you see the old mother. father. sister. watch the ship sail away with the boy? Cast you see the tears in their eyes? Call you see the mother and father limping away with their little girl. broken hearted. to seek their fortunes somewhere in the wide expanse of this great land of ours? To my find a law that would do this would be a cruel. barbarous law. and no such law should be in our statute books.
