In order not to cause American citizens to be deprived of employment by reason of the introduction of a limited additional number of immigrants at this time it has been provided in section 5 (a) of the bill that a first preference in consideration shall be given to those with certain professions or skills. These include farm laborers. physicians. dentists. nurses. household. construction. and clothing workers and aliens with unusual educational or scientific qualifications. These are for the most part those occupations where there now exists a need in many parts of our country for such workers.
