The gentleman from Alabama brought out the fact that the illegal immigration. so called. owing to the border patrol. was decreased. In the year 1923 it was about 60.000. This has only been in operation about two months. and yet it was reduced to 10.000 for the year 1924. The decrease was due to the border patrol I helped to establish. The question is whether 200 men can control 2.500 miles of border. patrolling it efficiently night and day. or whether or not we should increase it to the extent where undesirables can absolutely be kept out of the country. That is what I desire and .what I think every man down on the border desires.
