Chairman. first of all I should like to congratulate the very able chairman of this subcommittee. my colleague from Pennsylvania. on the able job he and his committee have done in getting this very. very necessary legislation on the floor of the House. We should not be here talkJUNE .2 ing about lessening the number of displaced persons. we should rather be considering bringing in more and more. more than this bill calls for. What made this country great? It was the immigrants who came from Italy and Ireland and Poland and the Slavic countries. We could use a lot more of them. The very fact that they are so eager to come here makes it a welcome thing that they do come.
