Mr. President. the Refugee Act of 1953. which was urged by the Presideit as an emergency measure. was passed by Congress and was signed by the President more than 6 months ago. This morning the Washington Post. in a very informative editorial entitled !Immigration Hoax." has shown that although 209.000 refugees and escapees from communism are authorized to be admitted under the act. thus far a grand total of just 4 persons have been admitted to the United States. Think of that. Mr. Presidentonly 4. out of an authorized 209.000 persons. have been admitted to our country. I now ask unanimous consent to have the entire editorial printed in the Appendix of the RECORD.
