H. R. 12225. which does exactly that. We recognized that in order to assure maintaining the quota system against offshore areas until we could get permanent legislation. it was necessary to pass the joint resolution. so that the purposes for which the quota system is imposed might be within the United States Constitution. We favor the imposition of quotas against offshore areas for the purpose of regulating foreign and interstate commerce. but we oppose any quotas on continental United States for any purpose. Wih this explanation and understanding we do not object to the consideration of the joint resolution. but I feel that the record should be made clear that by not opposing its consideration our position should not be considered to be agreeing to limitations of continental production.
