See Menace in Bill For Alien Deportation

WASHINGTON—Another effort will be made during the present congressional session to pass the drastic alien deportation bill, the adoption of which was attacked in the last congress as certain to bring about a virtual reign of terror among the 5,000,000 adult aliens resident in the United States.

The measure, in fact, passed the house vote of 213 to 39, and was prevented from becoming law primarily because it became lost in the senate’s legislative jam.

At this session, however, it is expected to get an earlier start, and consequently a better chance of passage.

For some time he has been considering buying land and building a residence for himself at the Floranda Club, north of Fort Lauderdale, on the east coast of Florida.
