To review the history of this piece of legislation and to analyze the unsatisfactory and unreliable basis upon which the quotas are based would take longer this afternoon than I feel that I have the ability to address the Senate. But in view of the fact that so. many Senators have told me that they never did understand the nationalorigins quotas and the basis upon which they were fixed. I ask unanimous consent. in order to save time and in order not to have to occupy the floor longer than I feel I am able to do this afternoon. to have printed in the RECORD as a part of my remarks. a statement which I made to the Immigration Committee a year ago. I ask permission that my original remarks before the committee be printed in the RECORD in 8point type and the quotations in 6point type.
