Mr. Chairman. I ainl very nmchll in sympathy with the intention of this legislation. but it seems to 111e from a practical standpoint that everything on page 2. beginning with subdivision 2 on down to the end of section 2. is dangerously near being unconstitutional. if I may make the suggestion. in that in this they make the conviction for a crime already committed before the passage of this act an excuse for deporting. In other words. the proposition looks. as drawn. as if it is merely adding to the punishment which the criminal already convicted has to suffer for violating a law before this act is passed.
