I am very much obliged to the Senator from Illinois for what he has said. and I am also much obliged to the Senator from Maryland for the dramatic way in which he has expressed the difference between a young man joining our Army for 5 years and a normal immigrant. Mr. President. this project requires some imagination. If one takes a routine. dryasdust view.of this proposal. It may appear a little frightening.. But how else are we to obtain soldiers who speak various languages. soldiers who will be so utterly vital to us? Mr. President. I predict that if this proposal becomes law. both the Navy and the Air Force. if trouble ever begins again. will be looking for some of these young foreign officers because of their linguistic accomplishments. and in case of conflict. both the Navy and the Air Force will need them as much as the Army will.
