In that connection I should point out that. the Attorney General will be required to report back to the House on his action with respect to these people for whom a waiver has been granted. Another thing this bill will do will be to admit many skilled specialists into the country. I have always felt that it was rather ridiculous for us to have in our immigration law a provision which says: Here is a person who has scientific and technical skill that this country must have. and then. on the other hand. say that in order to get the person with that skill he has got to come within an immigration quota. That seems ridiculous. because we admit when we allow a person who is a skilled specialist to come in that we need him. however. our law says that we need them but they must conform to some quota. I hope we can go further than this bill goes in legislation which we will consider next year.
