We made considerable inquiry about it. I was one of the Members of the House who opposed the Poage bill. However. after the discussion we had with the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization. I saw some meritin fact. I saw a great deal of meritto the Poage bill if we properly put into effect those things that will make this bill work to the benefit of the people of this country. We have a very bad situation in the southwestern part of this country in connection with wetback labor. The people came across from Mexico and the Immigration Service picks them up. In many instances we fly them by plane to central Mexico. Many of these wetback people are undesirable people in this country.
