Senate bill 2550. Let us not rush into a subject so delicate. so dangerous. and so difficult as this one without due consideration and without full study of all phases of this complicated subject. I want to see immigration legislation enacted this year. at this session of Congress. I have no desire to kill omnibus immigration legislation for the session. We need to have a pooling of the unused quotas. We need very much to lift from the present law the racial restrictions which for so long have been a cause of bitterness in the Far East and have bred so much resentment against US.
