Mr. Speaker. this woman admits that she has been guilty of open. notorious. and illegal cohabitation prior to her entry.. The grounds of deportation in her case were given correctly in the report sent to us. She has been convicted of bootlegging. and has three children. two legitimate and one illegitimate. and here is where certain details from the files are missing. She was questioned on examination. on her hearing before the immigration authorities at the border. She was confronted with certain affidavits made by people who knew her. who accused her of running a disorderly house. and of having illicit relationship with negroes and Chinese. The Members of Congress are entitled to the facts in this case. and the country is entitled to the facts. before we pass upon It.
