Gentlemen. if you pass this provision allowing her full discretion on thousands of aliens who are desperate. you will have to give an account of your action to the American people. We should hold this privilege of exercising discretion down to a narrow. welldefined course. There are in this country many aliens who should be deported. There are many who are being deported every year. but there are some we cannot deport. because we have no legislation that will warrant it. Of all the people who should be deported. the first is the gunman. I have heard for years the gentleman from Illinois speak about this class. The gentleman from Illinois and myself may not agree generally on these propositions.
