Speech #670209724

We are now on section (c) of this bill. Is it reasonable? One of its provisions in substance is that an alien may be deported if he violates the liquor laws of any one of the 48 States of tile Union. Putting out of view the Federal law. we know that the State laws are almost as diverse as the conditions and characteristics of the 48 States. I was told a moment ago by a Representative that in his State the lmanufacture and the use of liquor for sacramental purposes is not permitted. and that it is not permitted for medicinal purposes. Accordingly. we are asked to say that an alien who violates the law (of that particular State to the extent of making or importing or using liquor for sacramental or medicinal purposes sliall be liable to deportation.
