Not even the consul general passes on them. They are passed upon by someone further down the line. The tests to which I have referred are keeping out of this country some aliens who should be admitted. such as refugees from behind the iron curtain and others who would be valuable additions to our national community. including skilled technicians. and gifted writers and artists. who would be of great assistance to us in our struggle against the forces of world communism and totalitarian aggression. The pending McCarran omnibus bill recognizes this fact. Some changes are made. for instance. to permit reformed totalitarians. who are now outspoken opponents of communism and advocates of democracy. to enter the United States. The HumphreyLehman bill makes the same. and additional changes. intended to keep dope addicts. real criminals. and subversives out of our country. while permitting good and desirable aliens to enter. But the McCarran bill. aside from a few constructive changes. makes scores of destructive changes whose only purpose is to keep more people out of the United States and to raise new barriers and new obstructions to immigration.
