Mr. President. this bill and the next bill -Calendars 48 and 49are private immigration bills which have been held up because the proposed beneficiaries came to the United States as exchange students. and certain Senators feel that the purpose of the exchange student program will be frustrated if such students are permitted to remain as permanent residents. I have suggested an amendment of these bills. so as to provide for repayment to the United States of any sums received by the beneficiaries under the student exchange program. I believe this *is an equitable amendment. and should serve to satisfy Senators who feel that by the enactment of a bill such as one of these. the exchange student program. or the socalled Fulbright program. would be circumvented.
