I have not enjoyed that. But I felt the mandate from the Speaker and from the chairman of the Appropriations Committee required this. insofar as* I could comply. I desire In my own way to report to the House this afternoon. not as a lawyer. which I am not. not as a member of some intellectual group. which I do not claim to be. but as the son of a Swedish immigrant who enjoyed some of the blessings of this land of ours and as one who wants to keep available to coming generations of Americans the same opportunities that my father found here. There has been a lot said today as to why the hearings of this committee were not published. Again. in my own way and without the blessing of the committee.
