Mexico. on Monday and Tuesday of this week. I happened to be given the duty. as the American delegate. to "lay out the case." as we lawyers say. I pointed out that on the Mexican side of the border there are many thousandsand it was admitted in our committee hearings probably more than 200.000who cross the whole length of the MexicanUnited States bordersome 200.000 Mexicans who hold what are called commuter visas. They have the right to go back and forth across the bridges as many times as they wish a day. a week. a month. or a year. Each morning tens of thousands of them are loaded into trucks. and they come across the border and into the gates of American factories principally manufacturing textiles. but not limited to the manufacture of textiles only.
