I submit that under the testimony of the alien herself she knew. at least. of the fraudulent character of the birth certificate on the basis of which her entry into this country was obtained. She undoubtedly signed an application which recited that Ortelsberg. Germany. rather than Lithuania. was the place of her birth. and. incidentally. certainly she knew where she was born. The ultimate question. of course. is whether or not the order of deportation shall be stayed. This question was also asked her: Was it because of the quota restrictions in Lithuania that you secured a German birth certificate? A. Yes.
