Illegal alien problem grows “ Most often you're talking about a desperate, deprived individual who just wants to make a living.'' But the question must be asked if allowing aliens to enter the country illegally is the best way to help them, Conversano said As more and more come in it's evident that 's not the case, he said T here have been th reats to form vigilante groups in some area of the state because of the influx of illegal aliens into the job market, he said Solution to the problem rests in Congress. Conversano believes There is currently a bill being considered that would add 2,000 more employes to the im m ig ra tio n service, plus add more money, for a short time at any rate, to transport illegal aliens out of the country. But moat important the legislation would make it illegal to knowingly hire an illegal alien. “ If someone knows it's going to cost him to hire these people, the job market for illegal aliens would begin to dry up If there's no jobs for them here, the incentive to come will begone too'', he said Similar legislation has been proposed in Congress the last two years Both times it passed the House but died in a Senate Judiciary subcommittee headed by Sen James Eastland, D Mississippi But there are indications the bill might have a better chance this year, due to the overwhelming impact of illegal aliens on the economy, Conversano said Outlook dateline * * * * * * * * * Billboard hearing Tuesday hearing April 8 The second reading of an ordinance to regulate outdoor ad vertising in Multnom ah County will be held in Room 602 of the county courthouse, Portland, beginning 9:30 a m Tuesday Multnomah County P la n n in g C o m m is s io n recommends the adoption of the revised text of the amen dment to the zoning ordinance.
