Nor did our interest stop with the determined support of Greek aspirations that we gaveunder the Truman doctrine. for. after that. there was the Marshall plan. the ECA. and point 4 technical assistance. But there is another aid that we must give to the people of this ancient cradle of democracya gift that is perhaps as much spiritual as material. We must put an end to the degrading discrimination against our Greek brethren that is written into our immigration laws. Greece is overpopulated. it is impoverished by its excess population. yet. under our present immigration quotas. we restrict Greek immigration to a mere trickle. This is a shame to us and a crime against the brave Greeks whose independence day we commemorate today. Let us make this commemoration meaningful.
