Chairman. in my opinion this is the most dangerous piece of legislation that has been offered to us. I am opposed to it for many reasons. I call attention to Members of this House the title of this legislation. on page 69. line 10. in this bill: "International Committee on Political Refugees." That means you are here organizing a committee which will travel to foreign countries and mix up in foreign entanglements. You are opening another wedge for our country to become involved in foreign entanglements. You are sending representatives of this country to mix up with the affairs of people in foreign countries. I fear this committee is trying to replace the League of Nations. which has failed miserably to bring together the nations of the world. You are breaking down our immigration program. and I fear you will. through this legislation. make the United States the dumping ground for the political refugees of all nations. Of course. I sympathize with the suffering of any people anywhere.
