President. let me make my position quite clear. I do not like Communists or communism. and I have spent my adult life fighting against communism. But I think it is sort of peculiar that Premier Khrushchev. who is the No. 1 Communist. can come over to this country and dine with the President. and that Kozlov. who is the No. 3 Communist. can spend 2 or 3 weeks in the United States. and that Mikoyan. who is the No. 2 Communist. can be received on Wall Street. but a doctor who is one of the most eminent neurologists in the world. who may be able to contribute to the relief of pain and suffering. who may be able to give some guidance and information to American medicine. is denied a visa. In other words. we invite to America the top Communist. who can propagandize in America. who can run around and make speeches. nod and wink and smile. but we cannot bring to the United States a doctor who has a worldwide reputation for his scientific knowledge. Do not misunderstand me.
