I do not know how many hundreds--I was going to say thousandsof times that same kind of problem came to my attention. The subject has been before Congress for many years. That was perhaps another reason for reevaluating the concept on which we work and the concept that we followed in respect of immigration bills. There was a question of skill. A representative of one of the largest brewing companies in this country came to me and said. "We need an alemaker. We are going into the ale business." I said. "Why dont you go and get yourself one?" He replied "It is not that easy. We found one. He is in Czechoslovakia. but how can we get him here?" We find that often labor organizations will go before the Immigration Board and resist an application on the ground that there ought to be alemakers among our own citizens. They were in business. They knew the product that they had to brew to sell to the American people.
