| Description: | Shaky - light in contrast and imagery Mobs of frantic Orientals risk the dangers of detention camps in this country to escape the most recent edict that bars them from work in the state of Sonora. Driven to desperation, they scale the international barriers, and caught red-handed, are interned. More than 250 are captured by government agents and arraigned before Federal Marshal George Mauk, who sentences them to eviction from the country. The undesirable aliens are shipped, post-haste, to a pacific port, whence ultimately they will be sent to their native land. | |
