Chairman. I wish to join with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle in commending President Eisenhower for his humanitarian approach to the tragic conditions presently existing among our allies. This request for emergency legislation to permit the entry of 240.000 European immigrants into this country in the next 21/2 years has been urged in the national interest. We all know that the refugee situation is one of the most serious threats to our world security and peace. It becomes more and more tragic as conditions of overpopulation and unemployment grow more acute. We also know that unemployment and overpopulation breed economic instability. political and social unrest. and spiritual collapse.
