Mr. Speaker. on January 20. 1955. I introduced H. R. 2789. a private bill for the relief of Andrija Artukovic. This bill would grant to Mr. Artukovic the status of permanent residence. Since that time. the Immigration and Naturalization Service of the Department of Justice has issued a memo.randum in opposition to the bill. and also opposing my bill. H. R. 2790. for the relief of Mrs. Ana Maria Artukovic. wife of Andrija Artukovic. and their minor children. While the chronological facts of Artukovics birth in 1899. and his Ameri.can entry in 1948. are set forth correctly in the Service memorandum. the recitation initially skips a period of nearly 50 years in the life of Andrija Artukovic.
