Mr. President. certainly one of the most difficult problems before Congressand this statement is true with regard to nearly every sessionrelates to the broad question of immigration. When all is said and done. I believe the nub of the problem is how to protect the country against a great stream of immigrants who could have a dislocating effect on the economy. yet at the same time to ease the explosive effeet of overpopulation in other countries and do our fair share in the refugee field. not closing the door so tight as to destroy all hope for all people that there will be a haven and a life in America. I think that is the basis for the message the President sent to the Congress with regard to a new immigration bill. I shall not try to belabor the matter. but I think. in order to round out the full case. I should ask unanimous consent to have printed in the RECORD at this point. in connection with my remarks. some pertinent data.
