Mr. Chairman. when I first came to Congress it was my pleasure to serve as a member of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. I enjoyed the work very much. I found it to be one of the earnest. hardworking committees of this House and many times I heard the chairman of that committee. the gentleman from New York [Mr. DicKSTEIN] bring out the fact that codification and revision of the statutes pertaining to immigration and naturalization. and to the control of those features pertaining to citizenship was badly needed. I want to congratulate him on the appointment of this subcommittee. and especially do I want to congratulate the gentleman from Kansas for bringing out this bill and report as well as for the work he has done on it. May I add my word of tribute to that of others to Mr. Shaughnessy. of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. He has always been one of the most faithful. capable. and dependable workers aiding the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. The same thing may be said of Mr. Shoemaker and others who I know have worked faithfully in the preparation of this measure.
