Twentyfive percent are to be apportioned on a preferential basis to those who have been persecuted abroad or who have been driven from their native lands because of their adherence to democratic beliefs and opposition to dictatorship. or who have been classified as persecuteespeople who are in great need. Twentyfive percent are to be apportioned on the basis of special circumstances of hardship. We submit that this Is a much more humane manner of treatment and a greatly needed improvement in our immigration policy. The Nation can certainly absorb 150.000 immigrants a year. If Great Britain and Ireland do not use their quotas. they should not be canceled. but should be transferred on the basis which I have enumerated. In other words.
