“Only by implication from the silences in this colloquy can it be inferred, if indeed it can be inferred at all, that petitioner, through his counsel, admitted his alienage. While we are aware of the need for dispatch in bringing deportation proceedings to a close, we *652 cannot accept inferences borne only by silence as substantial and probative evidence”
