A criminal from England or France or Russia is a criminal and we should not permit him to have legal entry into our country. Likewise a person who cannot take care of himself and will not become a good American citizen should not be admitted. I was in Italy a few years ago and I saw the refugee camps. The situation then was more difficult than it is now and it was a new venture. From our experience with that experiment we have learned that much that we tried to do then was not to the best interests of our country and we should be careful now. I think we should follow our quota system and our screening system and refrain from any of these new schemes that will result to our disadvantage. I do not want to go into detail about these things now. but it is a sad situation. of course. However. what are we going to do with them when we bring them here?
