I thank the Senator for the information. I recall the report of the grand jury. but not in such detail as the Senator has given here. These border patrolmen are called upon to enforce the national prohibition law. and just the very moment that they were brought into the service of the enforcement of this law. corruption entered that service. These 12 convicted persons. customs border patrolmen. told these amazing stories of their experiences in the enforcement of the prohibition law. We have no such story. we have no such facts. we have no such convictions. in the enforcement of the immigration laws. That splendid service had been uncorrupted. as had been the Coast Guard. until prohibition was made one of the laws for their enforcement. Why.
