It does not grant all that I would like to see. but it is certainly a step in the right direction. Under its provisions. thousands of families will be reunited because loved ones. whose petitions for entry into the United States were approved before July 1. 1957. will soon be coming to our shores.

The act needs to be thoroughly overhauled and the national quotas must be based on the 1950 census. not the unrealistic 1920 census. Mr. Speaker. with permission I would like to have printed here with my remarks editorials from the Washington Post and Times Herald.
