Mr. Chairman. the bill before us designated as H. R. 3 and known as the Hobbs bill. named after its distinguished author. attempts to deal with those aliens within our country who are subject to deportation but who cannot be sent back to the home country because of war conditions. or because the governments of the countries from which they came have been wiped out. or because such countries will not permit their return. It is a problem that should be dealt with promptly and effectively. There is no doubt about that. Of course. the mistake was made when so many undesirable aliens were permitted to come to this country without having been more carefully examined and scrutinized. There should have been more precaution taken by our Government that only those who had passed the acid test of prospective citizenship were allowed admission to our shores. Mr.
