I want a statement other than. as was said by the gentleman from New York . that of the janitor. as to whether an individual is an alien or not. Do we want figures of that kind brought back to this Congress and sent out to the country as authentic? Are we going to permit such people to bring back to us statistics upon which we are to base final legislation? Ordinary census enumerators are not qualified to determine whether or not an alien legally entered the country. Neither will enumerators under the census law be in a position to get the facts regarding aliens. If the census of aliens is taken. it should be taken under the direction of the naturalization authorities.
