No. not under any circumstances. I remember well that when in the Committee on the Judiciary. we were trying to provide for the lawful deportation of an alien. which is in an entirely different category. the Senator from West Virginia rose in righteous wrath and said. "You cannot detain a man without some kind of a trial." The Senator from Michigan was one of the first to agree and to say. "Let us make it a crime to remain in this country willfully after a legal deportation order. Let us try the man before a jury. a jury of his peers. in a legally constituted court. before we sentence him." We changed the bill to that effect.
