Mr. Chairman. I had a party from my district recently ask me to request the Secretary of Labor to extend the deportation warrant in the case of himself. his wife. and his daughter. 21 years of age. He admitted in his letter that he was bootlegged into this country by way of Canada in violation of the immigration law. He said that if the extension were granted he would have sufficient funds to voluntarily depart and pay the transportation of himself. his wife. and his daughter. 21 years of age. as the three of them were working. That is how they were going to get the money. even in these days of unemployment. I hope that the gentleman from Illinois. who is a conscientious legislator and who realizes the unemployment conditions we now have in this country. in the name of law enforcement and in the name of the people out of jobs who are walking the streets. including many war veterans who offered their all for their country. will rise in his place and ask unanimous consent to withdraw his amendment. In closing I want to commend the present Secretary of. Labor. the Commissioner of Immigration. and the employees enforcing the immigration laws for their efficient. effective work. Mr. Reynolds and his small staff in the immigration office at Milwaukee are among the most efficient and hardest working employees in the Federal Government service.
