President. because an amendment will be proposed by the junior Senator from Michigan as we proceed further in the debate. the purpose of which is to increase the number. and which will go more into details respecting why we should think in terms of a larger number than the 100.000. It must be remembered that while a number of the countries in LatinAmerica and in Europe are admitting displaced persons for resettlement and. in some cases. in numbers far greater proportionately to their own populations than the 100.000 proposed by this bill. these other countries are not in the same situation that we are. While they may have the same selfinterest that we have in securing desirable personz for immigration and the same humanitarian interest in the matter that we have of affording them an opportunity to rebuild their lives. they do not. as we do. already have them on their hands. We have them on our hands. We have got to face that fact.
