O1)O.NNELL. Assume the case of an alien coming to New York destined to Davenport. Iowa. and claiming to have an aunt or uncle residing there. whose address. perhaps. he is uncertain about. and he is not an immigrant who would he likely to get along at the start without some assistance from his relatives: he is rather hazy in his ideas as to the financial circumstances of those relatives. i. e.. how they are situated. In many of those.eases It is necessary to send an offucer to make an investigation of the case. In thousands of other cases we get reports from municipal. State. and Federal agencies. but there are many other classes of cases which must be investigated. The State Insane asylums in Iowa report many cases through the course of the year of inmates of those institutions whom they believe to be subjeet to deportation. and an investigation must be conducted In each and every one of those cases. There are several thousand Chinese in the State of Iowa who are constantly going and coming. Each one of those Chinese. when be applies for a return certificate. must be investigated. and when he applies for permission to reenter a fiither investigation is necessary in order to determine that the conditions which existed when he went out have not changed in the interval elapsing since then.
