I agree with the Senator from Arkansas completely. I merely wish the RECORD to show that in the case of Australia. whose policy is restrictive and highly selective. they are being overwhelmed with applications to come in from good people who wish to emigrate to Australia and settle there and claim a part of the future of that relatively new continent as pioneers and settlers. I am completely out of accord. however. with the theory that we must change our policy merely to suit someone else. I do not believe that people in the world. generally. will approve or disapprove of America merely because of its immigration policy. It does not make any sense. We have the right to be as restrictive as we feel our own interests require. and I am very glad that the Senator from Arkansas is bringing out that point so clearly.
