I desire to read just a few of these figures. It has been charged that under the present law we cannot deport these aliens. I believe I have had as much experience as any other administrative officer in the deportation of aliens. I have said on the floor of the Senate. and I say again. that the hangmans job is an easy one compared to that of Secretary of Labor when he has to enforce the deportation law. especially with regard to certain cases that arouse all the sympathy that Is within a mans soul. I remember the case of a smuggled aliens family. and I think it hardened me a little bit when we had a report on that particular family. In one of our Midwestern States this family had smuggled in one of its children who could not pass the medical examination at the port.
