Madam President. I do not believe that we in the United States can maintain our position of high prestige among free nations if we practice one brand of democracy and preach another. We owe it to ourselves to maintain our position of democratic leadership In world affairs by enacting an immigration bill which is fair. which contains no arbitrary and unconstitutional standards. and which is free from offensive discriminations. S. 2550. the pending bill. however carefully drawn. is replete with unconstitutional. discriminatory. and arbitrary provisions which will damage us at home and abroad. It can only confuse and confound us with its controversial and unworkable 302 pages.
