Of course. some of the other departments did have such a cut. but the department alongside of which these men work did not suffer from it. and it was never intended by Congress that these men should be thrown out of employment for more than one month during the year. Some of them were confronted a few weeks ago with an order requiring them to discontinue work for six months. which could not be set aside until a tremendous amount of pressure was brought to bear against it. If I had the time. I feel I could show you that it is not economy in the long run to furlough these men. In fact. it will mean additional expense in the future to round up and deport undesirable aliens who will come in while these officers are taking their enforced leave. The amendment should be approved.
