May I say to my good friend that I do -not agree with him on that point. I have taken the trouble to make a very careful checkup on that. and I have found that there are involved only a very few persons. who have been living on the borders for some time. and they are not in a true sense of the word European refugees at all. The European refugees in these days cannot get out of their countries without a passport. and then need proper identification for every move they make. May I add this to the whole discussion: Would it not be worth the price to give the committee that is in charge of the subject and responsible for the legislation an opportunity to go into all these matters? I call the attention of the Members to the fact that in the last few years 28 American border patrolmen have been killed in cold blood by smuggling rings. Do you believe the Labor Department can find out who is doing all this shooting? There seems to be a racket. and probably an international group.
