bill. But finally the committee reported a bill having certain limited discretionary provisions affecting new groups of deportable aliens. See section 1 of the Kerr bill. H. R. 8163. a copy of which is enclosed. . The sixth subdivision of section 1 of the Dies bill would make deportation mandatory in cases of aliens who do not within a specified period of time try to become citizens. Again this committee has given to this proposal of compulsory naturalization considerable study and there was considerable indication that this principle was quite repugnant to many members of this committee. as applied alike to all aliens. However. several parts of the Kerr bill extend certain relief to specified groups of aliens. and with regard to such aliens the Kerr bill withdraws the relief given and provides for deportation of such of these aliens who fall to try and become citizens after legalizing their immigration status for them. The seventh subdivision of section 1 of Mr. DIEs bill makes Communists. as such. liable to mandatory deportation. This Committee has already acted on this proposal and another bill by Mr. DIEs.
