I want to join with those who have spoken on this occasion. Sam Dickstein was my friend. and a close friend. I served with him on the Committee on Immigration for over 10 years. Part of that time he was chairman of the committee. We had parallel Interests. We were both immigrants. We both came from the old country. as it is called. when we were each 6 years of age. I was the 12th child in a family of 13. and I know something about what Sam Dickstein went through. This country of ours provided the opportunity which Sam took advantage of. and which I have tried to take advantage of.
