The practical value of it is not going to be very great. Now. in regard. to the last clause of the first paragraph in the first section. "as soon as practicable to be deported to the country of which he is a subject or citizen." I would be better satisfied with the bill if that clause were not there. but I do not think that it is particularly dangerous. because it will not be practicable to deport them. In the district that I have the honor to represent. according to the census of 1910 there were 92.000 men over 21 years of age. and 38.000 of these men over 21 were foreign born. Our mills and our minesthe coal mines that we needed this winter. that we shall need next summerwould practically stop operation if those aliens were deported. I am going to vote for the bill in spite of that clause. because I do not think it will be practicable to deport them. We can not get ships enough to take food and munitions and our own soldiers.
