But let us not deceive ourselves. The proposal is in direct violation of the admonition given by President Eisenhower. Were we to pass the bill in its present form. while it may be the best bill we can get under the circumstancesand surely I shall take it. if it is the best I can getthe fact of the matter is that we are overlooking completely one of the very important problems referred to by the President of the United States and discussed in his letter to the Vice President. in which he stated that. in addition to the refugee and escapee problem. there is involved the very serious problem of overpopulation. The pending measure absolutely disregards this problem. Furthermore. there has been some apprehension on the part of some Senators to the effect that the pending measure would open up the number with respect to those who would be allowed to come into this country.
