The answer might include a declaration that these aliens cannot vote and therefore that no dangerous political repercussions will ensue. It is likewise the fashion to pick upon some scapegoat and visit upon him the blame for the ills from which we suffer. In Germany the Jew was the victim of such legislative pogroms.

The facts are that there are less criminals who are aliens than there are American citizens in the criminal category. Prison statistics prove this point irrefutably.
