President. But this subject has been studied to death. In case the President does not know it. a Presidential Commission on Immigration and Naturalization made its report on January 1. 1953. It had taken -oral testimony on the subject from some 400 persons all over the Nation. and received written statements from approximately 234 others. Its testimony runs to some 2.100 pages. and can be obtained -from the Superintendent of Documents. if. the President should care to see it. The report of the commission is 304 pages long. and is a very excellent report. It is the definitive work on what is wrong with the McCarranWalter Immigration .Act. I cannot understand what could have been going on in the executive branch during the last 3 years that would lead the President to think that we should study the Immigration and Nationality Act some more. It so happens that I proposed some interim measures of my ownway back in 1953. Some of the Presidents interim measures are suspiciously like the interim measures I proposed on July 31. 1953.
