As I understand. a professor can now come in to the.United States regardless of quota restrictions. but under the McCarran bill he would have to come in under the quota. as the Senator has already stated. The McCarran bill goes further and recites that he may not come in unless he proves that he is a man of exceptional ability whose services are urgently needed for the welfare of the United States. That would certainly bar a great many physicists and others who have helped so much in developing our preparedness program. But also it would seem to me to bar a great many persons who have great value in the humanities and the classics.
