It was a reprehensible act. a violation of the seventh. commandient. a violation of decency. but no reason for perpetual incarceration or the withdrawal of American citizenship. Now. this consul general says that this woman. Rosa Goldman. now claiming to be. his wife. should be deported as an. undesirable alien. Well. in England and Germany they have such laws that you can pick up any alien and deport him because he is undesirable.. but we have still the oldfashioned American desire to have a man condemned before he. is executed in this country. and there is no law on the statute books of this countryby which you can pick up a man of foreign birth. on the. whim of an official and deport him as being an undesirable. alien. This consul general ought to come back and. imbibe a little of Americanism and learn a little.
