On the political and psychological front. we must erase the damage that has been done. and restore the image of America symbolized by Woodrow Wilson. Finally. to restore our position in the world. we must live our own faith here at home. We all know the damage that has been caused by our discriminatory immigration policy. and the fiasco of our refugee programand the hostility toward the foreignborn that is written into the language of those acts. It is tragic that during these critical 3 years President Eisenhower has done nothing about our Immigration laws. and has only lately come forward with proposals to amend them. Governor Williams has ably discussed these subjects earlier this evening. and I join with him in urging the rectification of these Injustices in our policies and our laws. We should know. too. the injury we suffer all over the world when a young woman is refused admission to a university in the United States on account of her color. or a citizen denied the right to vote. because of his race.
