That is why we have sought this means of trying to get action on measures which have been properly before the committee and on which hearings have been held. At those hearings. my bills. now represented by four of the amendments I proposed to H. R. 6888 were officially endorsed by the administration. and their enactment was urged by the Secretary of State and the Attorney General. representing the two agencies of the Government directly concerned in the administration and enforcement of the immigration and nationality laws. No other bills or legislative proposals on that subject offered by a member of the majority have that endorsement. In addition. Congress has had several proposals to consider which would have the effect of providing for the orderly termination of the refugee relief program and the complete utilization of the visas made available under that act. Only the bill S. 3570. dealing with the orphan provisions of the Refugee Relief Act. has been acted upon by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary. What then of the proposal before us? What does it contain. and what portion of the Presidents program does it adopt?
