Speech #800110316

My first preference in dealing with the matter was to have it dealt with by a concurrent resolution of the House and Senate. I realize that time is past. and that cannot be done. It was in my judgment the proper/way to deal with the subject of displaced persons. because it involves more questions in my judgment than simply immigration. My second preference. as the Senator knows. would have been an amendment to his resolution. which would have set up a special displaced persons subcommittee. consisting. of course. of the judiciary group. but also consisting of members of the Foreign Relations Committee. the Armed Services Committee. and any other committees that might be concerned with the problem. But I do not wish. if I can avoid it. to complicate the matter by offering amendments.
