Hard labor is expressly inhibited. Many a good citizen would welcome an exchange of lots with one of these alien enemy hand biters who will get three good square meals a day and a kindly. comfortable home as long as he wishes. The "sob sisters." who have joined the Reds in fighting this bill. simply fail to appreciate the meaning of our sovereign right of deportation. Deportation means more than the making of .an ineffectual order. It means banishmentthe removal of the deportee from the free life of America. Until we banish and remove these poisonous alien elements from circulation in the bloodstream of our body politic we are but a laughing stockour national sovereignty. in this regard. but a joke. As long as we acquiesce in the shameful thwarting of our right of deportation. while every Nation that may wish thumbs her nose at us. and. by refusing to take back her poisonous dregs. converts them into freexesidents of our homeland. our laws are set at naughtour solemn adjudications are as vain as the handwashing of Pontius Pilate. What does the word "deportation" mean? Of course. it comes from the Latin "deportare." Defrom. portareto carry or transport. The New Century Dictionary defines it in these terms: To carry away. transport. banish. to carry off. remove. especially: transportation from a country by way of banishment or expulsion. It means nothing less than banishment. and we must see to it that our Nations deportation orders resume that outmoded connotation. Every free and independent nation has the right of deportation. indisputably. Yet in many cases in past years other nations prevented us from exercising that sovereign right. What are we going to do about it?
