Mr. Chairman. this is in line with my effort to get a decent living wage for all Government employeas. We have an Immigration Service. and I am sure if it were investigated it would be found that a large number of men. women. and employees are serving at a ridiculously low rate of wages. Some of the older men who served with me on Ellis Island 20 years ago are still receiving wages of $1.200. $1.400. and $1.500. particularly the laborers. messengers. guards. and some of the interpreters. After the statement.s made by the gentleman from Washington and the gentleman from Alabama of the importance of this work. and the good work they are doing.
