Representatives Clare Boothe Luce and EMANUEL CELLER put in a bill in the House and I introduced one in the Senate. and the bill was finally passed. with the assistance of Dr. Cooper. now deceased. of Catholic University. The committee held that the Pakistanis were Caucasian in view of testimony given by certain anthropologists. Mr. President. in World War II 250 Pakistan boys offered their lives as members of the United States Armed Forces. I think there ought to be an immigration quota for Pakistan. I suggest to the distinguished chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations that when the Senate considers the matter of Near East relief. the subject of a quota for Pakistan be included. I compliment the Senator from Vermont upon the remarkably fine work he has done.
