Speaker. the proposed amendment to the general bill. H. R. 13316. calling for an appropriation of $300.000 per annum to aid in the enforcement of the immigration laws. is a sum inadequate and insufficient to properly police the borders and ports against the entry of undesirable aliens. The annual report of the Commissioner General of Immigration. 1922. sets out the following: Canadian border smuggling operations: The past year has been the foremost in history in increased attempts to smuggle from Canada into the United States. Mexican border: During the early part of the present calendar year a number of Hindu aliens were apprehended in the vicinity of El Paso after they had entered without inspection. and investigation disclosed what appeared to be carefully devised plans for the importation on a large scale of contrabands of that race who were thereafter to be employed by fellow countrymen operating ranches in California. Certain of these domiciled Hindus came to the border from California. and in El Paso.
