‘ALIEN SCARF
IS MINIMIZED
More ‘Humane’ Regulations
In Deportations Are
Urged By Chief
Characterizing the estimate that
there are 3300.000 aliens in the
United States illegally as a gross
tsaggeration. Col. D. W. MacCcr
mack, commissioner of immigration
and naturalization, is urging
changes in the American immigra
tion laws which he says are bar
barous and un-American.
He estimates that there are less
than 100,000 aliens in the United
States illegally and subject to de
portation. The actual number of
aliens in the United States legally
Is 4,022,000. according to his rec
ords, and about 1300.000 of these
have directly or through their par
ents applied for naturaligatlon.
The official advocates changes In
the immigration laws which would
prevent separating of families. Such
• a hill is being offered by Represen
tative Kerr of North Carolina and
Senator Coolidge of Massachusetts.
This bill, according to Commission
er MacCormack, closes up loopholes
in the present law through which
the alien criminal escapes, strength
ens the hands of the Immigration
Service in seizing and deporting
the alien who enters illegally, and
prevents some of the “incredibly
cruel" family separations which are
Inevitable under the present laws.
“Upon the success of this bill de
pends the fate of 2.600 aliens of
good character whose deportation
has been stayed in the past two
years—Infinitely more important—
the fate of the families in this
country. If the law is not changed
these people must be deported
Thev will leave behind them more
than 7,000 members of their imme
diate families. Including over 5,000
wives and children, and for the
most part American citizens. I am
not a sentimentalist, but I have an
unconquerable faith in the human
ity and Justice of our congress and
of our people and I cannot bring
myself to believe that they will
permit this unjust and inhuman
mass deportation to come to pass,
Commissioner MacCormack stated
in a radio address at Washington
Saturday.
The commissioner asserts that the
"alien scare has been grossly exag
gerated and that “there is no real
ity in the efforts to paint the alien
in this country as a menace tc our
form of government, to our jobs, and
to our standards of living. The fig
ures so often cited are fantastic
exaggerations. Nc scintilla of proof
has ever or ever can be advanced
in their support.”
BRIDE-WIDOW
(Continued from Page One)
from Cleveland by airplane after
the funeral of her husband, was
led into a room where Zenge, her
former suitor, sat manacled, un
shaven and half asleep.
The couple sat as the clock struck
midnight. They conversed briefly,
in monosyllables of trivialities.
The name of Dr. Bauer, former
Cofessor of a college in Kirksville.
o.. the husband who left his bride
a few hours after they were mar
ried to take a post graduate course
at the University of Michigan was
not mentioned.
‘Don't Remember*
Mrs Bauer told Dougherty. “I
kvow him so well I just can’t be
lieve he could do a thing like this,
but. the circumstances certainly
point toward him "
She also said. “I didn't ask him
about the slaying because I knew
the officers hadn't been told any
thing and I didn't think he'd tell
It to me ”
The police Investigators hoped
that as a result of this meeting
between the widow and the man
she jilted to marry Dr. Bauer.
Zenge might be willing to answer
questions which previously he has
parried with “I dont remember
and “I won't talk until I get an
attorney.”

Monday despite profit taking flur
ries which dented some of the re
cent leaders.

up to Saturday 's irnal hour, was fast
er than usual.
A rally in wheat encouraged re
covery proponents. Cotton and other
commodities w'ere inclmed to mod-.
erate firmness. U S.. government se
curities were easier, but the majority
of corporate bonds more than held j
their own. Foreign exchanges were
quiet and narrow.

points and others, up fractions to a '
point or more, included Standard

ors. Chrysler. Auburn. American Can
Westinghouse. U. S. Smelting. Santa
Fe and N. Y. Central were down as
much as a point renewed interest
in the petroleum stocks, which have
not been doing much lately, was at
tributed partly to signs that prefits
in this field are growing and to be
lief that the adminstration will
sponsor measures to aid in stabiliz
ing the industry.
Word that the president had call- !
ed a conference of congressional '
leaders to talk over the oil situation :
was helpful. In addition much satis
faction was expressed over the six
months* repert of Phillips Petroleum
which revealed earnings about 1
double those of the corresponding
two quarters last year.
