Norway. Holland. and France should be a warning to us. I thoroughly approve of the Executive order of the President to transfer the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization from the Labor Department to the Department of Justice. but this is not enough. The Congress should at once enact laws requiring every alien in this country to register and to have every alien fingerprinted. and these aliens should be required to carry identification cards subject to inspection at all times. In this time of great crisis. it is no reflection on the legitimate and honorable alien to require registration and an identification card. so it will be possible to detect. deport. and. if justified. punish the undesirable alien who has abused the privileges extended to him by the United States. Action should be taken quickly and no time lost in passing drastic and compulsory legislation requiring a complete registration of every person in America who is not today a legalized citizen. together with careful supervision of the time of expiration on the permits of those who are here for intervals limited by law.
