Chairman. I want the House to proceed in -an orderly way. but I also want something done now. As a member of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. I know that that committee has dealt with this troublesome question and worried over it for four or fire years. We reported a bill to t.e House recommending the estdblishment of an aditional border force. Advi(es coming to us show -that from three to five times as many men as come through the ports. -come in as smugglers. Many of those coming through the ports come illegally. in violation of the -teracy. contract labor. and other restriction tests. It is a standing -disgrace. It -is a dishonor to the United States to have its laws trampled under foot -as is now done on the Mexican border and on.the Canadian border.
