Speech #650153713

When the Immigration Bureau goes to enforce the deportation it will. no doubt. refer the question as to treaty violations to the State Department. That department. according to the statement of the gentleman from Virginia . has already decided that question. although the Supreme Court in the One hundred and thirtieth United States case has decided that it not only does not violate a treaty. but that no treaty could be made which could deprive this country of the right of deportation. In the case in One hundred and thirtieth United States. Chinese who had resided here for years before the law was passed were required to register. and on failure to do so were to be deported. The court held that this law was not in violation of any treaty rights.
