I will state to the gentleman just what wehave recommended. The amount we have included for regulating immigration. including the border patrol. is $7.915.000. an increase over the current year of $805.000. Of this increase $585.000 is due to salary promotions. leaving a balance of $220.000 as a net increase for this purpose for 1930. This will be divided equally between the regular immigration and deportation work and the border patrol. making available $6.046.560 for immigration and deportation work and $1.868.440 for the border patrol. This $220.000 is about all they can absorb with their present machinery. There is only a certain amount of work that can be done.
