Mr. President. if the procedure proposed by the McCarran bill were to be approved. the power to reject would be taken out of the hands of the Displaced Persons Commission. The resultant load on the State Department and on the Immigration and Naturalization Service would. I believe. destroy the effectiveness of the security screening by those services. * Mr. President. there is a fable. by the French writer LaFontaine. about a man who decided that he would do a number of good deeds to help his neighbors. In each case. however. although he started out to do a good deed. he found himself mainly involved i9 protecting his own interests.
