Speech #760138716

As I read it. it might well be read to mean that the alien must admit in writing that he has been convicted. I do not think that is what the Senator intends. The language reads. "has admitted in writing that he has engaged in or been convicted of espionage." and so forth. It would seem that a man who admitted that he hadbeen convicted would be deported. but a man who refused to admit that he had been convicted could not be deported. I feel. as does the Senator from Vermont . that the theory of admission is a bad precedent. If agreeable to the Senator from Georgia.
