Speaker. I wish to address myself to those portions of this proposal which deals with the problem of necessary importation of sheepherders from the Basque areas of France and Spain with particular emphasis on Spain. It is my understanding that we are considering a Senate proposal rather than the House Judiciary Committee proposal. however. both of them propose that the mortgages against the Spanish quota derived from the Displaced Persons Act and from the various special acts heretofore passed dealing with immigration of needed sheepherders will be abated. This mutual provision is significant. It conforms to a recommendation contained in a report of House Judiciary Committee Subcommittee No. 1 dated February 14. 1957 pursuant to House Resolution 107 of the 85th Congress.
