The question here is---will the United States be regarded abroad as a happy hunting ground for those who capitalize on the public flaunting of immorality. It is about time we did something to remind people abroad that the moral ideals which make our Nation great and respected have not died. Any.action in that direction would lift our index rating on friends. respectability. and honest purpose. The decision in this matter at this point rests with the Department of State. which has the clear and uninhibited authority to revoke the visa given to Richard Burton. That authority is vested in the Department of State by law. The question is. therefore. will the law and clear congressional intent thereon be exercised by the Department of State.
