I have here some 150 telegrams from the ethnic Armenians in the United States asking that this amendment be agreed to. It seems only fair to bring them under this bill. They were persecuted during World War I and down to and through World War II and up to the present time. I hope very much the amendment will be agreed to. May I remind the House that we are all descended from foreigners. We are all descended from immigrants. Our country has been made strong and great by the blending of all these nationalities. I hope that my amendment is adopted and that these ethnic Armenians will be allowed to come into this country.
