I do not want to have aliens who are dangerous to the body politic in America continue to be here. but I believe there are other matters connected with this legislation that must be considered. I should like to vote for it because it would be nice to go home and make speeches and say that I voted against prostitution and against enemy aliens and so on and so on. I am against them. and I believe every proper effort should be made to hasten their deportation. But after all. the issue here is not an issue as to whether or not you want these people to stay in the United States. it is not an issue as to whether or not you want them to be punished. and it has nothing to do with the length of the term they are supposed to serve in jail in punishment for offenses. it has to do simply with whether or not America is going to adopt a method of putting these people into what will amount to concentration camps in order to try to solve the problem. I would be perfectly willing to vote for a bill that stated that America would not accept a single immigrant from a nation that refused to take back these people who are under order of deportation. I would also be willing to vote for a measure--and. as I understand. one is coming here for consideration soonwhich would make more severe the penalty against espionage in this country. I believe those measures are reasonable. and I understand the necessity for them. but I believe it is very dangerous when the House gets into a spirit such as I believe it is in this afternoon when we have to be swept along with the tide. without considering carefully the implications involved In the pending measure.
