Now. there is one other point. and tlen I am through. and that is this: If we make this exemption and if. for example. 25.000 of these laborers are admitted to go on the farms. we will soon have a demand from the Department of Labor for about a thousand or more deputies. Government agents. and spies to keep watch on these fellows. Let us not set up a class of labor in this country that has to be watched by Government officials. so thfat when it is out of a job it has to be deported. We have enough people on the Government pay roll at this time. Let us not bring about a condition that makes it necessary for us to hire hundreds and perhaps thousands more Government employees and add to the expense of the taxpayers.
