In viewofthe tremendous increase in taxes and in our national debt and the billions we .*are paying out for national defense there should be no increase inthe number of oficeholders except where absolutely necessary. I The measure before us. in my opinion. is vital and necessary for the protection of our own Government and our own citizens as well -as lawabiding aliens. The Congress by almost unanimous vote has placed on the statute books of this country laws governing the admission of aliens into our country and their conduct after they have come. and laws providing that they shall be deported if they violate our laws and endanger our national security. The bill before us does not deport anybody. All alienswho come into our country legally do so with the distinct understanding that they will be of good behavior and obey the laws of this Nation and not become a menace to our citizens or to our country. Of course. a citizen cannot be deported. This bill does not deport even an enemy alien. This bill begins to operate only after the alien has been ordered deported. after he has had his trial before the immigration officials. where he and his witnesses and his counsel can be heard. after he - has appealed to the lower Federal courts and finally to the Supreme Court. and the judgment of the Court has sustained the finding of the immigration officials that he should be deported. It is then. and then only. that this measure comes into operation. Now. what has made necessary this legislation? Thousands of aliens. including enemy and criminal aliens. have been ordered deported by the immigration authorities and by the courts. and they have been ordered to leave the United States. but thousands of these aliens have not obeyed the orders bf the immigration authorities and the courts. and they have remained free in this country. The excuse of many of them is that the countries from which they have come will not take them back. Hundreds and. hundreds of these are Communists from Russia. Hundreds and hundreds of others are from Germany and Italy. and hundreds from other countries. Most of these aliens ordered deported are undesirable people for any country. and that likely is one of the reasons why their native lands will not receive them. While it is very clear from the evidence submitted to our committee that there are thousands of these aliens who are Communists or members of other subversive groups. their native countries desire them to remain here to obstruct and menace the peace and security of this Nation. Congress has passed laws providing for the deportation of these aliens and it has authorized and directed the executive branch of the Government. the Department of Justice. to deport them. These aliens have failed and refused to obey the acts of Congress or the orders of our courts and thereby defied the Congress. the courts and our Government. This bill does not reach- all of them who have been ordered deported -and failed to leave our country. It reaches only the more aggravated. cases. Many of them will not come under this act unless and until it is shown after a full and fair hearing that it is necessary for the public safety to detain. as provided in title 2 -of the bill. these aliens. It reaches hundreds and hundreds of -aliens who have been ordered deported because they are members of anarchistic. communistic. or other similar groups. and including hundreds of aliens who have been sentenced morethan once to a term of 1 year or more of imprisonment because of conviction for certain classes of crime or crimes involving moral turpitude.. such as dope peddling. treason. espionage. sabotage. -kidnaping. extortion. robbery of the mails. or. of a bank or of an officer or employee of the United States. murder. rape. arson.: or seditious conspiracy. and those convicted of carrying on for profit the business of prostitution. It seems to me that some of our. friends who made such vigorous speeches against this bill have not studied it carefully. Why such tender regard for aliens who have been permitted to enter this country as our guests on the condition that they would be of good behavior and then proceeded to commit the crimes of robbery. murder. rape. arson. treason. espionage. sabotage. kidnaping. extortion. dope peddling. and carrying on commercial prostitution?
