The second group of preferences are highly skilled technicians. workmen. professors. doctors. scientists. who cannot come in under other preferences. The third preference group. amounting again to 25 percent of the total unused quotaswe are only talking of a few thousand peoplewill be those religious persecutees. those people who flee from behind the iron curtain because of religious persecution. such as that suffered by men like Cardinal Mindszenty. The fourth group. immigrants on application of an American citizen or of a reputable American organization. who merit special treatment because of special circumstances of hardship surrounding each case. Mr. Chairman. this does not say that we will use all of the unused immigrant quotas for anybody from any part of the world. It only says we will use them for those people who fall in these four special categories. reuniting families. people of special skills. religious persecutees and where there has been undue and exceptional hardship.
