Is Inconsistent with any efficient enforcement. All laws faithfully enforced sometimes crush men who come in conflict with them seeking to defeat their purposes. That officials may set aside mandatory statutes at their discretion is preposterous. and the official who does it Is unworthy of his place. For at least six years there has been much of this In the enforcement of the Immigration laws. Unless the country can find men of sufficient conscience and firmness to apply the law. the purpose behind all former legislation and this bill will fall. That purpose Is the protection of the Nation against a recognized peril.
