We in the North are rather dependent upon these aliens for good workers. and we do not wish a continuance of much prejudiced opinion. I had the case last fall of a bright young man who had married a citizen and raised a family. He applied for his naturalization papers. but was informed that his uncle who brought him to this country had used a false name when he came in. This was no fault of the boy. He had to be deported to Portugal. and the authorities over there have made it very difficult for him to reenter. He has not yet come back to rejoin his family and again try to become a citizen of the United States. Now. it is most unfair. is it not. that you should try to deprive the Department of the right to give you or me proper information about these aliens?
