Because no account of this convention has been reported in the press. I want to read part of a newscast of Howard K. Smith reporting from London in which he said: -It is no longer news when Europeans attack the McCarranWalter Immigration Act which has been called over here the most offensive piece of legislation ever passed by Congress. but conversely it is news when the main victims of the act the sailors of Europe praise that piece of legislation and that the International Transportation Workers Union representing the seamen of all Western Europe and now meeting here has done this morning. A resolution passed by the body says. "Freedomloving people should welcome such measures." It adds that the union willingly cooperates with governments which take such screening action. It does add a request that the screening of Europes seamen arriving in the States be simplified. but that comes as a pretty weak stinger on a resolution in general pralseful of the McCarranWalter restrictions.
