His many decorations and recognitions by our Government attest to his outstanding service. I am proud to have him as a member of my personal staff. He is not on the staff of the Joint Committee on Immigration and Nationality Policy. as stated by the junior Senator from Ohio. and this stands as the least important error in his misguided statement on the floor of the Senate today. Colonel Corsos long and distinguished service to our country ably qualifies him as one who knows the danger of the international Communist conspiracy to our free and representative form of government. and. with which naive persons are unfamiliar and thus attempt to brush aside. The context and timing of the intemperate and misguided remarks of the junior Senator from Ohio against two outstanding Americans. raise the question of motive. Is the junior Senator from Ohio attempting to block passage of the immigration bill passed by the House which was scheduled for debate in the Senate today? Could it be that the junior Senator from Ohio suffers from an acute case of frustration because the immigration bill he introduced has been rejected by the steady will of Congress at work. It is well known that the junior Senator from Ohio has been completely misinformed about the nature of the immigration bill passed by the House. He labors under the impression that the House Subcommittee on Immigration and Nationality does not exist. He apparently is not aware that major provisions of the bill which will come before the Senate tomorrow is the healthy prbduct of the House subcommittee and bears no relationship to the bill which he introduced. If he will take the time to read the report on the immigration bill before the Senate he will find there a clear statement on the role played by the House subcommittee in producing an immigration bill which won the overwhelming support of the House and which I trust will merit the same recognition by the Senate.
