We are trying to find out definite information. to bring back definite evidence and be in a position to present to this Congress sufficient law. if necessary. to put an army of veterans along the 8.000 milesof our borders to stop the smuggling of these aliens. Gentlemen talk about the border patrol. If all the men in the Mexican border patrol were stretched out along the -border they would be 8 miles from each other. The whole border system has got to be reorganized by Congress. All we are asking you to do is to give us an opportunity to study the problem that we may come back here in January and present a law with teeth in it which will stop smuggling.
