Mr. President. on April 29. 1959. the Senate passed S. 182. to grant to the minor child adopted by a citizen of the United States the status of a nonquota immigrant. The bill provided that the natural parents of the beneficiary could not derive any preference under the Immigration and Nationality Act. On June 23. 1959. the House of Representatives passed S. 182. with an amendment to delete the reference to the beneficiarys natural parents. Information is to the effect that the beneficiary is an orphan and the provision was included in the bill by the Senate merely as a precaution.
