That is what I was about to say. The idea of putting the Bureau of Immigration under the Solicitor General of the United States. On the face of the matter it is ridiculous. As I say. I have no objection to the Bureau of Immigration being transferred from where it is. goodness knows. but it ought to be under some executive department which has a bureau which does that job. and that job alone. The reason why it Is being said that the bureau is to be placed under Mr. Biddle. the Solicitor General. is because people have confidence in the Solicitor General. But is the F. B. I. to do the investigating. or are the employees now in the Bureau of Immigration to do it? That is one of the big questions. Are we to turn this activity over to those who have been seeing things around the corner all these years. who have attacked every liberal Senator and gone through his office?
