It is unAmerican. violates our traditional policy. and if enacted would result in persecution. bribery. and corruption. It would also place upon the shoulders of the taxpayers the cost of enforcement. which would be tremendous. It is also proposed at a time when we have inculcated the policy of restrictive immigration. when illegal entries will be greatly lessened. Its passage would result in the establishment throughout the land of the hated European espionage system. so thoroughly despised by Americans. Such a law would be incapable of satisfactory enforcement. as I have said before. it would bring about further corruption of public officials and also the bootlegging in certificates.
