The spirit which Emma Lazarus captured in her stirring words should be repeated despite the fact that in practice the Statute of Liberty does not offer a wide open door to democracy. I quote her words: "Give me your tired. your poor. Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these. the homeless. tempesttost. to me I lift my lamp beside the golden door." Some of us in Congress. including your Representatives. ROBERT GuUo and EMnhO DADDARIO. have fought together for a realistic immigration law. In the midst of the last presidential campaign. on September 20. 1960. I proposed a fourpoint program. which in many respects conforms to the program which your organization has been advocating for a long time.
