You will find I nthat RECORD on page 1334 a speech on the floor of the Senate by Senator MCCARRAN in which he brings to the attention of the Senate a memorandum from Mr. Argyle Mackey. Commissioner of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Mr. Mackeys memorandum comments on your broadcast of February 11. 1953. in which you state that the McCarran Immigration Act is responsible for a "growing antiAmericanism among the Norwegians who have always regarded America as their second home."
