Speech #820214082

It requires days to read. I assure Senators that it will take the most expert lawyers weeks and years to understand it. It is 302 pages of verbose. complicated. confused elaboration of what. in my judgment. need only be a simple code covering our immigration and nationality procedures. The immigration and nationality laws of Canada consist of less than 75 pages. They can be read and understood by the average intelligent layman after a single evening of study. Senate bill 2550. the McCarran bill. is so obtuse that the Senator from Nevada seems to have decided not to explain it to us section by section. as I thought he had agreed to do when the debate on the bill began.
