Following is the text CT the rescIu-
ton:
Where's, the immigration de-
partment Of the United States, under
2 direction Of Secretary Of Labor
Davis. Is deliberately or otherwise
failing 70 keep proper records Of
aliens leaving the United States BY

figures covering the number Of aliens
leaving via the Mexican border, to
create a national question out Of a

Now. therefore be IL resolved by
