However. the change will not be substantial. and certainly there will be no diminution. The only thing we propose is to take the unused quota numbers for Great Britain and Ireland. the difference between 21.000 quota numbers. which have actually been used. and 66.000. which were allotted to them. and place them in a pool. together with unused quota numbers for other nationalities. and permit those quota numbers to be used under the formula set forth in the bill. In that way. they will be of some use to people coming from overpopulated countries. which include Italy and Greece. as well as the German refugees who do not qualify under the German quota. but who still are a serious economic problem so far as Germany is concerned. Those are the only changes we propose to make. It seems to me that that is a completely reasonable and fair proposal.
