An effort was made to bring her in despite the law as the State Department construed it. An appeal was made to the courts. That began in the court of first instance. The case went all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States in an undertaking by the powerful. social. financial. and political influences marshaled in the effort to override the immigration law and let this woman in presumably on the theory that her powerful connections placed her above the law. Mr. Speaker. I ask leave to extend myremarks by inserting the statement made by the State Department to the committee with reference to the facts in this case.
