Mr. President. it is alarming. The very idea of adding to our everswelling millions the alien hordes who would break down our immigration barriers should be repugnant to the thinking of any sane man who Is more concerned with our economy and our way of life than with the hardships and tribulations of other people over the face of the earth. The adding of 400.000 displaced persons or socalled displaced persons. because only a small segment of the 400.000 would be wardisplaced persons. could not possibly contribute sufficiently to our social and eeonomic welfare to justify the risk that we should run if all the 400.000 were admitted. I stand for Americans first. and until I am satisfied that the dangers of unemployment. housing shortage. and economic instability are a thing of the past I shall oppose any measure which may have the effect of increasing the number of aliens coming to this country.
