No State will have any displaced persons forced upon it. The governor thereof must signify how many he will permit to enter his jurisdiction. We are all immigrants or the sons of immigrants. except the Indians. It is fitting. therefore. that we extend a hand of welcome to the oppressed of other lands. The history of our Nation shows that the rich blood of the immigrants has fired the life stream of America with new courage. It has given us great men and great women of wisdom. devotion. and talent. Our Republic has expanded because it extended its charity and opened its gates to those who knew even better than we. the blessings to be found in a Government of free people.
