I call attention to the remarks of the gentleman from New York and the section by section analysis of the bill in the RECORD of Monday. June 1. Suffice it to say at this point. the legislation is vitally needed and a matter of utmost urgency. We have tolerated a system that has not met the serious problems in a manner befitting the lofty goals of this Nation. a Nation. I might add. of immigrants. Both party platforms in 1960 called for liberalization of our immigration laws. I had the great privilege of authoring this platform plank in 1960. We have the opportunity at this time to demonstrate our responsibility by adopting this legislation.
