I think my position In regard to conscientious objectors is fairly well known. I have never been able to understand their philosophy and their point of view. Nevertheless. I have no doubt at all that some of our Quakers and some of our immigrants of Quaker faith have proved to be among our finest citizens. I do not think there should be any blanket disapproval of persons with characters so fine and principles so high as those of the Quakers. The McCarran bill also contains a clause. first enacted in 1950. requiring that the alien be able to write in English before he can become a citizensection 312.
