I am shocked that this House should have to consider a resolution requesting the Secretary of Labor to violate the law. May I read this resolution to you? It is stated: In order that the Congress may have adequate time to consider the proposed legislation. the Secretary of Labor be requested to continue the stay of deportation until March 1. 1936. Mr. Chairman. if there is a legitimate case for consideration of this sort of thing it should never come in here under request to the Secretary of Labor or any other official of the Govermnent to violate the law. but should come up under a joint resolution directing the Secretary of Labor to stay an execution of this kind. if there is a legitimate reason.
