Mr. President. Professor Finch is the only international lawyer of whom I know who believes that all worthwhile objectives such as the control of narcotics by treaty. treaties of friendship and commerce. treaties of extradition. and treaties relating to quite a number of other matters. which we all admit must be the subject matters of treaties. can be accomplished through some delegated right in the Constitution. either by virtue of the commerce clause or by virtue of the jurisdiction of Congress over immigration. Professor Finch holds such opinion in the teeth of the decisions of the Supreme Court and despite contrary opinions of a number of other eminent international lawyers. Why does Professor Finch and why do others desire to stretch the commerce clause to cover matters which the clause was never intended to cover?
