I find myself in sympathy with the amendment. I hope it will be adopted. No member of the House Committee on Immigration. so far its I know. believes that the present appropriation is adequate. There are two ways to nullify any law. Our friends who are opposed to the eighteenth amendment and its enforcement sometimes adopt one of those methods. and that is to oppose the appropriation for sufficient funds to enforce the law. One way to destroy the immigration law. and a very effective one. Is to refuse to enforce It. The law Is not enforced but is shamefully abused.
