He has presented the case for this bill as ably as it could be done. I think it is important. however. that the House bear clearly in mind exactly what it is doing in this bill and what it is not doing. If this bill is passed the basic immigration laws of the United States will still stand subject to such amendment as the Congress may in the future choose to make. By the passage of this legislation the Congress will in no way whatsoever reduce its power to cut down further on immigration as a whole should it seem wise to do so in the future. In my judgment. emigration out of a nation has never proven the answer to the problem of the peQple within that nation. As a matter of actual fact. even largescale emigration out of many of the nations of the world has left them with substantially the same problems and even the same population pressure as they had before. By and large the problems of the various peoples have got to be solved internally within their nation if they are to be solved at all. But the issue that we have before us today is to my mind an issue that goes to the very root of the problems of peace In the world tomorrow.
