President. that the opponents of this bill repeatedly charge that the bill discriminates against oriental groups when the truth is that the bill has the unqualified endorsement of the oriental groups of this country who are unalterably opposed to the socalled HumphreyLehman bill because they know it would give them the kiss of death. The JapaneseAmerican Citizens League has given the committee bill its unqualified endorsement and is opposed to the HumphreyLehman bill. The ChineseAmerican Citizens Alliance. the only nationally organized group of American citizens of Chinese descent in this country. has endorsed the committee bill "as an honest effort to eliminate racial discriminations from our immigration and naturalization laws and prevent unnecessary separation of families." Mr. President. I ask Senators to allow me to complete my statement. because I wish to conclude for the day.
