It has approved an amendment to H. R. 10 which makes necessary judicial review of the action of the Attorney General. It provides for supervision of all aliens and imposes criminal penalties in the event the alien is recalcitrant or has not departed from the United States within 6 months after an order of deportation has been entered against him. This amendment places emphasis where such emphasis should be placed. namely. in designating undesirable aliens as criminals. and making them subject to the penalties of the criminal code. Courts have always had the power to determine whether criminals shall be locked up or released on parole. The Senate committee amendment would permit application of that power to cases of undesirable aliens while at the same time giving the protection of judicial supervision to those who may be improperly accused. I believe it is a good amendment and does much to correct the bill.
