So he was arrested for murder. and they could not deport him. Then while they released him on bond. I believe. or suspended the order of deportation. he killed his second man. and possibly a third. The authorities are in dispute as to whether he got his third or just shot at him. At any rate. he is still imprisoned in the Michigan State Penitentiary. and he cannot get out even to be deported. So these men have been with us and we cannot get rid of them. But the authorities testified before our committee that there were several thousand criminal aliens who had been finally ordered deported. and whose deportation was not stopped by prison bars. but because they did not care to leave. At least. that is about what it amounts to. There is only one way I know to do it. and that is by H. R. 10. which we passed so overwhelmingly Monday. I just want to corect in the minds of any of you ladies or gentlemen who are present any impression that there has been any punishment inflicted. that there has been any criminal charge prosecuted. This bill specifically says that they shall be detained in aid of deportation. our sovereign power. though not at hard labor. That is to meet the decision in the Michigan case. You keep them as parlor boarders.
