Cuban. Polish. and other foreign groups into our society. then I believe it is time to question the qualifications of those who purport to head this bureaucracy. Secretary Rusk is vague as to who these foreigners are who find discrimination in our immigration policy. Could it be the Liberians who permit only Negroes to immigrate to their country? Could it be the Australians who bar all Negroes and orientals from entering the country "down under?" Could it be the Arabs who do not allow the infidel Christians to approach closer than 12 miles to Mecca and Medina? I was recently informed that the National Broadcasting Co. is going to establish a TV system for Saudi Arabia and that they first had to train Saudian nationals in the operation of technical equipment because only the faithful could enter these holy cities of Mecca and Medina. Could the foreigners who criticize the United States be Africans. particularly from those new countries who do not admit any Westerners except under limited conditions? Could it be those black nationalists who are crying "Africa for the Africans?" I must say that I am at a loss to know who these foreigners are who the Secretary of State shows such deference to and whose criticism makes his job so burdensome. According to the administrations new immigration proposals. the national origins quota system would be phased out over a 5year period. Mr. Rusk says that this is necessary because if we did not do that those countries in Western and Northern Europe which now have priority would be swamped by the Asians and Africans coming into the United States. and that. because we must be respectful of the sensibilities of our alliesEngland.
