But my guess is that there are here at least 1.000.000 who have entered in defiance of our law. The money appropriated to search out and discover and deport these aliens is not adequate. nor is the law. The pressure to enter the United States is so great at our borders that outlaws resort to crimes ranging from bribery to murderanythingto get in. This pressure is a great strain on our border patrol. which was organized in 1924 to keep out those seeking illegal entry. A much larger force of patrolmen is required to uphold our law. In 1928 over 25.000 violators of the law were apprehended. of whom 20.000 were smuggled aliens.
