Let me read the testimony of the representative of the American Bar Association: Finally. we are deeply concerned with the provisions of S. 716 and in particular sections 106 and 360 which seriously limit judicial review. It is our opinion that these sections give unbridled authority to adminIstrative officers to act arbitrarily. The sense of these proposals is to oust the courts of review over factual and discretionary decisions of the immigration authorities and to grant them blank checks to do as they. will. The administration of our immigration and naturalization laws will thus become an administration of men rather than of laws. There is no compelling reason for these proposals. The checks and balances exercised by the judiciary insure greater impartiality In our administrative officials.
