Mr. Speaker. this felony bill on illegal aliens will not bring to a halt the flow of wetbacks across the Rio Grande. There are many reasons why this is true. There have been those columnists and high Government officials. including the Secretary of Labor. who have stated that we discriminate against and abuse these people. The facts are that we pay from five to at least ten times more in wages on this side of the Rio Grande than are paid to these same laborers in Mexico. and that we furnish them better housing and living conditions than can be afforded them on the Mexican side.
