rs 948 from Mexico, which are nom
quota countries.

discretion Was used In exercising de

The deportation proceedings made his
task more difficult than the hang
mans" There always Is q good reason
underlying the deportation of an alien,

ported last year under the quota re-
Strictions. and $4,000 others voluntarily
left our shores when advised by immi-
grafton officials that they we're here IL

thinking women who are clamoring for
peace and are led along by propagan-
diStS reared In the school OF Sovietism
TO believe that peace can be secured
only through destroying the great
American Army and Navy"
We hear pacifiSts all around us im-
ploring us not to add sufficient strength
to our Navy" she said They are well
meaning people who do not realize the
dangerous element at work 10 under
mine the foundation OF our country"
Mrs. Norton urged the Daughters 10
bring their influence TO bear TO secure
