A million jobs at a mere $40 a week would be $40 million every week. or more than $2 billion a year. A great portion of this $2 billion is sent back home to the families of these unfortunate workers. lured into this country by promises of far higher pay than they could command in their own country. It seems a conservative estimate that $1 billion a year of our balanceofpayments problem is attributable to the illegal alien. sending his money back home. The illegal alien contributes to our welfare problem in two ways. He. himself. becomes a public welfare charge when the rosy dreams of an easy life in this country do not pan out. We are a humanitarian Nation.
