I shall merely add that if there were as much will to administer the program as there was to have the bill passed. the program would be underway very shortly. I think we all recall the lengthy hearings held by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary. and the many compromises it was necessary to provide. in order to report the bill to the Senate and to make it acceptable to certain key Senators. and also to the majority of the Senators. I think all of us recall the great jubilation and sincere happiness which was felt when the bill was finally passed. because we all knew of the great suffering on the part of many of the refugees. I have made this speech because I thought possibly it might have a stimulating effect in arousing the responsible administrator into more positive and. I may say. effective action.
