I thank the distinguished Senator. A great many bills are pending in Congress to tear down our immigration laws. to eat away the quota system. In my judgment. there is a concerted attempt to destroy the quota system piecemeal and to create new quotas. Most of these bills pass the House of Representatives and come to the Senate. where they are referred to the Senate Committee on Immigration. They go to a subcommittee of which the distinguished Senator from South Carolina and the Senator from Mississippi are members. There they rest and there they sleep. and I think the people of the country owe the distinguished Senator from South Carolina a great debt of gratitude for his fight in the committee to maintain inviolate the immigration policies of the United States. With those policies maintained and the defeat of such iniquitous bills as the one now pending. the United States will remain a country ruled by the oldline American citizens. Mr.
