Underlying this most discriminatory legislation of our country is the assumption that the Greek people are inferior to the British. German. and Irish. Does anyone in this country believe this any more. if they ever did? While communing with Greece this coming week let us all think of this legislation which prevents uniting of families. What can we do? Write to our Senators endorsing the Hart bill S. 500 and to our Congressman endorsing the Celler bill H.R. 2580. These are administrationsponsored bills which would provide a different plan for handling immigration without greatly increasing the number of immigrants. The national origins quota system under which Immigrants are selected first by country of birth would gradually be eliminated.
