The substitute amendment tries to reach a compromise between the figure in the committee bill and the view expressed earlier in these discussions. and approved by a vote of the Senate. namely. the figure of 100.000 a year. I feel that the Senate. with unanimity of feeling in sustaining its committee. can very well support the amendment in the nature of a substitute. There is reason for the figure of 70.000 which is suggested. Last year that was the approximate number of quota immigrants who entered the United States. As has been stated. that was the largest number to enter in any one year for several years. So I feel that we may do well to support the substitute and let it become the bill of the Senate.
