I am leaving to the proper factors the evaluation of this opinIon. As far as the matter of stabilization of the residence of the group of the seamen from Formosa is concerned. I wish to point out that the private bill filed in their behalf by Congressman SIEMINSKI. from New Jersey. at our request grants them only the right to request later the legalization of their stay here within the framework of section 6 of the Refugee Relief Act. In other words. after the bill will have been passed. they will have to start anew through another phase. to file again the requested applications. to once more go through all the hearings and wait another year for the final settlement of their case. I am afraid that this is absolutely too much for their nerves and imaginations. We must not forget that most of these men spent almost a year and a half in Formosa before they reached the United States. That is why it seems to me that. after termination of the investigation of each of them. now being minutely carried out by the immigration authorities. the United States Congress should pass an ultimate decision on their remaining in this country.
