Mr. Speaker. X have this day introduced House Resolution 576. to provide for the temporary admission of political or religious refugees into areas within the United States to be known as free ports for refugees. The idea of free ports has been discussed widelyand very favorablyin the press throughout the country. I hope to have a public hearing soon. and invite the Members of this House to participate in the discussion of this problem. If we all cooperate we should be able to solve this important problem before it is too late. I would also like to announce that I have introduced today a bill that will bring between $150.000.000 to $200.000.000 of revenue to the Treasury of the United States. by taxing race tracks. a way to raise revenue which the Committee on Ways and Means apparently overlooked.
