They know how to get in. Is it conceivable that they could not find a way to get -out? Some of you may not agree with me. or with the law of this land. or with the determination of our duly constituted authorities that such deportable aliens should not be permitted to live here in freedom. merely because of the pretense that they cannot make departure arrangements of some kind. But I say to you that men like Cesare Valenti have never made a valuable contribution to the life of America. They have frequently taken lives which would. And if the deportation proceedings now pending against him result in a final order of deportation. and if arrangements cannot be made for him to return somehow to his native Italy. then I reiterate and insist that some such measure as the pending one should require that he be separated from the free life of America. even though it means detention for life. Keep them here. if you wish. but I do not. The next question which naturally arises is: Why are they here? The obvious answer is that our laws have been set at naught. Our sovereign powers have failed. In some instances that failure has been due to the whim of caprice of foreign governments. but in the main. they act with solemn assurance in vetoing our right of deportation. They seem to know what they want. and how to get it. Collusion and bribery undoubtedly play their part in forcing us to retain these undesirables.
