I must not forego the opportunity to remind all of us of Congressman KLEINs exceptional services to the maintenance of the noblest traditions of our country. Whatever our political views. we must acknowledge with respect that in him we have a tireless champion of the freedoms and rights of every American. that have been granted to us by the work of the Founding Fathers of this country. I recall in particular his forthright challenge to the Iniquities of the McCarran Immigration and Naturalization Law. I recall his courageous stand. in and out of Congress. that this country must not put up with the concept of secondclass citizenship. I recall his almost solitary voice against the invasion of our privacies by the condonement of wiretapping practice. I recall his humane understanding of the needs of the latest of our large immigrant groups when he designated for a West Point appointment a young man of Puerto Rican origin. I recall. too. his forthright challenge to the late Mr. Rankin.
