I do not agree with my colleague. He is clearly laboring under a misapprehension. You. could. under the same premises. reach a conclusion that the passage of this bill will transfer some of the activities in enforcing the prohibition and customs laws to enforcing the immigration laws. When you have three independent agencies having jurisdiction over three different lawsthe customs laws. the immigration laws. and the prohibition lawswith a certain number of personnel. you are going to be able to more efficiently enforce all of the laws if the agencies are consolidated and the personnel enforces the three laws and not one particular law. be it prohibition. immigration. or customs. As far as prohibition is concerned I yield to no man. from Wisconsin or any other State. in my opposition thereto. However. if it comes to the question of consuming liquor illegally in this country.
