Mr. President. on March 8 the Michigan Committee on Immigration sponsored a 1day conference on immigration in Detroit. Mich. Among the many excellent presentations at this conference was a speech by Mr. James J. Norris. president of the International Catholic Migration Commission. entitled "The Century of the Homeless Man." We all hear from time to time about the refugee problem and its implications for national and international policies. In his speech. Mr. Norris speaks of what it means. in stark human and individual terms. to be a refugee. Often in discussing the definition of a refugee. the question is: "What is a refugee?" rather than: "Who is a refugee?" Mr. Norris is talking of the man and woman and child who are the refugees of this world. And I believe all of us would benefit from his thoughts. For this reason.
