We went into that matter very thoroughly. We had representatives of the State Department and the Labor Department before us and they tell us that the number of husbands who go abroad to marry women just to bring them in in circumvention of the law are very few. The departments go into these cases very thoroughly and they hold that such a marriage is not a marriage in contemplation of the quota law. It is therefore safe to presume that they will be able to control the matter of American girls seeking to marry aliens in order that these men might come in. If this privilege is abused. the legislative arm of the Government is ever ready to come to her defense with corrective legislation.
