Speech #670208469

I desire to ask one or two questions. I observe that in the hearings the committee gave some attention to the question of the passportcontrol system. which. as lie said earlier in his remarks today. isa great producer of revenue. It has always occurred to me that the effective way to enforce the innnigration laws was to have some American instrumentality abroad by which inspection could be made before the. intended emigrant started for the United States. I have heard it rumored tiat some governments have indicated reluctance to allow American officialsto be assigned for the purpose of supervisingthe immigration problem at the point of origin. Has the gentleman any information: on that which was. developed in the hearings and which he can impart to the committee?
