Mr. President. I should like to remind the Senator that a bill going much further than this is now in the Committee on the Judiciary. a bill which completely takes care of the immigration problem. or attempts to do so. and recodifies the entire immigration laws. This is a temporary expedient to take care of an emergency. The other bill goes much further. This bill is more or less for the purpose of strengthening the arm of the immigration service pending the . passage of complete legislation on the subject of immigration. and to enable them to ferret out certain places which they have heretofore been unable to search. The bill. in short. makes it an offense to harbor or to transport or to bring in wetbacks. The previous law makes it an offense to enter the country illegally.
