I move to strike out the last word. I do so not for the purpose of laying the blame on some poor. green clerk. but placing the responsibility right where it belongs. No man charged with the respbnsibility that the Commissioner of Immigration is charged with and having at his cominand two and onehalf million dollars is fit to occupy the position who does not observe the plain provisions of the law. This gentleman who has been traveling about over the country making speeches ought to have guessed a little nearer to what the requirements of his service were. The provision of laO is that he shall make his allotments by months or quarters so that there will be no deficiency at the end of the year.
