I remind the Senate in absentia. with the exception of two of my distinguished colleagues. that the Walter bill. which was passed by the House of Representatives. took cognizance of this very point. Representative WALTER recognized the validity of our argument. and he amended his bill in such a way that this provision of the McCarran bill was not contained in the Walter bill. We find that the McCarran bill which is now before the Senate and which is supposed to be the last word in immigration law. contains greater potentialities for the abuse of power than does any other piece of proposed legislation which has been presented to the Congress. It is inconceivable to me that this provision was included in the McCarran bill after thought and consideration. It is another indication of the fact that the bill needs more study by its senatorial proponents and supporters.
