Mr. Chairman. we have criminal statutes and Immigration laws to deal with subversive aliens and persons who illegally enter or illegally remain in the United States. Those laws. and not an administrative provision such as is contained in the appropriation bill now up for consideration. should be invoked to deal with the question of aliens of the classifications I have mentioned. The way to deal with the alien problem is not to starve human beings to death by refusing them employment. To them the United States is the land of opportunity. They have sacrificed the comfort of home and family association to come to this promised landto this country that came into existence because people sought opportunity or were persecuted and oppressed elsewhere.
