I am not particularly interested in disrupting family relationships. That is not the intention behind my amendment. I take it that is the basic difficulty the Senator from Massachusetts finds with the amendment. As I understand. the bill would establish a list of seven preference priorities: Unmarried sons or daughters of U.S. citizens. husbands and wives. unmarried sons or daughters of alien residents. members of professions. married sons or daughters of U.S. citizens. brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens. skilled and unskilled persons capable of filling labor shortages. and refugees from communism. I should like to ask this question of the Senator from Massachusetts: Assuming that we have the 170.000 worldatlarge figure. and there are 170.000 people in the categories which are set forth as preferences in the bill. would he anticipate that those who did not meet the preference categories would come in under nonpreference?
