Instead of building up these unfortunate people who came here as nice. fine. clean people. people who have committed a crime in this country probably through no fault of their own. we are now seeking by this socalled concentration camp bill to pick up those people who are now living clean lives. men with a wife and four or five children going to school and to church. and trying to put the head of that family in a concentration camp and keep him there as long as this great board which you are going to set up is willing to keep him. Mind you. if you will read the law. no bail. shall be allowed to these people. So here are your deportable aliens who came here years ago. who have committed a crime. and who have paid the penalty and have been restored to society. married to American womenthousands of them. with fine familiesand at the same time the country from which they came is no longer in existence. Our treaties are gone. There is no place to send them.
