I know the Senator is interested in immigration because. though not being a member of the committee. as an interested listener he has been in attendance at the hearings every day. During some of those hearings the Senator must have observed that some of the social workers testified. I have in mind particularly a lady from Buffalo who testified before the committee. who had been to see some of the alien families who. with all the vigor of her being. appealed to the committee in behalf of those who were deportable under the present law. but whose deportation would mean a separation of families. She went to see them. and. having seen them. said none of those families ought to be deported. The minute we adopt the course suggested in the "George" affair about which the Senator is talking. we establish a precedent. because it is only one sample case. George came in here illegally. but that is his only offense. If we send him out of the country. we will have to support his offspring and probably his wife. If the Senator has a big heart. which I know he hasI am sure he hasI cannot see how in this particular case he can ask that the man be deported. I doubt if there is another such case among the 2.862. I think the Senator must have picked out the worst ones. If this man should be deported and sent back to his native land. he would probably go before a court martial and probably meet his doom before a firing squad. The Senator from North Carolina and I have had several talks on immigration. I thought we were in perfect accord. I had never seen his bill until yesterday. although it is before the committee.
