Inasmuch as the Senator is discussing page 9. let me say that section 22. on page 9. reads: No alien shall be deportable by reason of the amendments made by section 20 or 21 on account of any act committed prior to the date of enactment of this act. Was that provision inserted for constitutional reasons? It would appear that if it were not there. persons who at the present time are known to the Government to have conspired in the past might be immediately rounded up. I was wondering whether or not that language was inserted for constitutional reasons.
