What little legal learning I possess absolutely forbids that I surrender what I regard as an American right and adopt some Hitlerism philosophy. and transplant it over here to govern us in this country. That is what this means. I want to give you an illustration of how. according to my judgment. the bill might not operate with any degree of uniformity on two fellows deported for the same offense. Suppose one of those men was a citizen of Great Britain at that time. Under this bill. whenever the passport arrived from Great Britain. we can deport that fellow. found guilty of a violation of some of the immigration laws of this country. and he may not be here 60 or 90 days. just a reasonable time. in order that he might be deported. But suppose that the fellow was a citizen of Czechoslovakia. He had as much right to come into the United States as a citizen of Great Britain. but there is no Czechoslovakia any more.
