President. if the Senator who interposed objection will withhold it for just a moment. I should like to make a brief explanation of the bill. It merely proposes to add to the class of aliens who are subject to deportation those who admit in writing that they have engaged in or been convicted of espionage or sabotage for a foreign government since their entry into the United States. It also adds to the class of deportable aliens those who have been guilty of violating the antinarcotic laws of any of the States. I cannot conceive of any possible objection to the bill. It has passed the House unanimously. and the Senate Committee on Immigration has carefully considered it. The bill merely adds the two classes of aliens I have mentioned to those who are now deportable under the immigration laws. namely. those who have admitted in writing that they are guilty of espionage at the behest of a foreign power. and those who have violated the narcotic laws of any State.
