I think it is not only our right but it is our duty to search. find them. and bring the persons who are distributing them to the bar of justice. There is just one more thing. At the time we had the debate upon the rule. considerable comment was had concerning cases involving moral turpitude wherein a person might be deported. I want to call the attention of the Members to page 22. commencing on line 14. which is the law as it now exists. This provides that in any case where any person is convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude. if the judge at the time or within 30 days thereafter shall recommend to the Secretary of Labor that the alien shall not be deported. then that alien cannot be deported. regardless of whether the Secretary of Labor wants it done or not. it is absolutely absurd to assert that a boy who would steal an apple might be deported because it involved a question of moral turpitude. There is not a judge in the United States of America or in any of the States who would ever send a person back to the land from which he came for stealing an apple. If any Federal judge did anything of that kind he would be brought before the bar of this House. impeached. and thrown out of office.
