This bill was introduced on June 3 of the present year. 1936. The alien mentioned herein appeared before the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization on the same day. That is quick work. He said his name was Abraham. and not Adolph. He said that he entered this country illegally in 1926. 10 years prior to the introduction of this bill for his relief. He had 10 years in which to take out citizenship papers. He said that he had bought a fraudulent passport. for which he paid $275. Those who sponsored his cause said that his was one of the "hardship cases". but on further inquiry we learn that this man. classified as one of those upon whom we are now imposing. claiming to have paid $275 for a fraudulent passport. left in Europe a wife and three children. and for 10 long years he has not seen that wife or those children.
