Cowan. director of the legislative department of the CIO. in which he states: We strongly urge. therefore. that the bill be referred back to the Committee on the Judiciary for much needed adequate hearings and full study. Of course. that is the usual sort of an argument that is advanced when there is no logical. valid reason for opposing legislation. I am going to call to your attention the attacks made by the CIO on this legislation although they merely parrot attacks made by various organizations who would like to prevent the enactment of any legislation. The first item in opposition states: While purporting to eliminate racial discrimination in our immigration law. H. R. 5678 in fact perpetuates such discrimination. the CIO. on thb other hand. consistently has advocated abolition of racial discrimination In every form.
