Mr. Chairman. last year the Department of Labor was authorized to stay the deportation through August of this year of 2.026 hardship cases of noncriminal aliens who were technically deportable. These deportations would have meant the breaking up of a great many families. It would also mean leaving here in this country approximately 7.000 dependent relatives. mostly boys and minor children. who would be left in this country on relief. This resolution asks for the extension of the stay through March 1936 in order that the Commissioner of Immigration. Mr. McCormack. may file with the committee a report of all these cases. which may then be presented to the Congress for final disposition.
