Mr. President. one of Americas outstanding private organizations devoted to aiding refugees from world tyranny. the International Rescue Committee. is celebrating its 30th birthday this year. This fine group. which has aided oppressed peoples find homes in our land. deserves special congratulations this year for its dedicated and effective service to humanity. An excellent editorial in the Rochester (N.Y.) TimesUnion of June 24 points up the outstanding activities of the IRC and emphasizes properly the mutual benefits to be derived from opening our doors to refugees from abroad. As this editorial notes. those who escape from tyranny tend to become our most dedicated citizens and champions of freedom. That is a fact which should be borne in mind as we in Congress struggle to remove inequities and shortcomings in the immigration laws. Mr. President.
