‘Wetback’ Bill Awaits Final Congress Action

WASHINGTON, Mar. 11 (CDN)! —The controversial - ‘‘wetback” bill, containing a new concept of search warrant procedure, will be up for final action in Congress, shortly. Tentative House-Senate agreement has been reached on the measure, aimed at keeping thousands of Mexicans from wading the Rio Grande, or crossing the horder elsewhere, to "work as farm laborers, outside of agreement quotas. Argument stems from a pro-‘¥iston-in the bill giving officials the right ‘to search for {illegal aliens within 25 miles of the river border without warrants. “Dwelling places” within the area are exempt, but barns, sheds, land and anything else can be entered and searched by police of any jurisdiction as the bill stands now. Says It's Law Now Backers say police have that right already under general law. Those against the measure regard the search section as setting a dangerous precedent. The Senate bill sald only immigration and FBI agents could make arrests and then only on warrants that could be issued by the attorney general and top Immigration district officials. The House tacked on amendments extending arrest authority to all police and granting any court of record the right to issue the necessary warrants. This hit Senate resistance in the conference between the two house, As a result a new section is being drawn giving any officer the right to search within 25 mies of the border as long as he doesn’t enter a dwelling.”

It is an offense to bring In some one outside of immigration quotas. But convictions for keeping the same person once in have been impossible since a Supreme Court decision some years ago The “wetback” bill provides fines of as much as $2000 and up to five years in jail for '"harboring” illegal entrants, It states, specifically, however, that merely employing such a person cannnt be ruled as 'harboring.” The bill gets its name from the fact that many of the Mexicans coming north to work wade or swim the shallow Rio Grande. There i8 no agreement on the number who arrive in this fashion or on what they are paid for their work here. Various figures differing widely have been reported to Congress | i

Who enjoys your March 15th headache?

You don't, and we don't. But some do! They gain extra benefits from tax money —— a privilege denied most of us.

Consider the companies that use the highways to earn profits. Your taxes and ours help keep them in business. They couldn't function without the roads we all pay for.

Other companies earn their profits in the air and on. the waterways. They enjoy ofir taxes, and yours, in subsidies of one kind or another.

True, most of these companies also pay tages. But their taxes don't help you or us — not as the taxes all of us pay help them. No sir! Most of us have to dig into. our own pockets for everything it takes to do business.

Don't misunderstand. We believe in paying our fair share of taxes. Nor do we object to competition — from buses, motor. trucks, airplanes or barge lines. Competition is the constant spur that drives us all to better our products and services.

But competition spurs no progress when some travel under their own power and others hitch-hike on your taxes.

The Illinois Central has $705 million invested in trans portation property, pays $36 million annually in taxes, and spends $84 million a year keeping itself in smooth running order. We believe our competition ought to pay its own way in equal measure, and stop riding on your tax money.

We tell you these things because the pocketbook of every man and woman,-and every business, is directly concerned — because you are the direct. beneficiaries of the competition that is the cornerstone of American strength’ and prosperity. Warne A. JounsTON . President
