I have been informed that the Department of Justice is willing to accept this bill. wants this bill. but it wants also this discretionary power. Now. bear with me a moment as I read through the provisions of these sections. 401 and 402. . It provides that the Attorney General shall have discretionary power in cases. for example. where the alien has proved himself of good moral character for 5 preceding years. to permit that alien under prescribed liberal conditions to depart or to suspend any deportation of that alien if he is racially inadmissible or ineligible for naturalization on the further condition that the alien has resided in the United States for 7 consecutive years or that such deportation would result in serious economic detriment to a citizen or legally resident alien who is the spouse. parent. or minor child of such deportable alien. What harm can result from such discretionary power lodged with the Justice Department? It could separate the worthy from the unworthy aliens here illegallyseparate the sheep from the goats.
