I shall oppose the amendment for that reason. but any time evidence can be submitted to me that there is need for protective legislation. I shall support it. There is no need for legislation as proposed by the Prouty amendment. as has been pointed out in the arguments here. such as in connection with the migrant families. There the problem is to provide protection to see to it that there can be better recreational facilities. better educational facilities. and better health assistance. The answer is not to deny those children the right to pick iberries. cherries. pears. and whatnot in offschool hours. but the problem is for us to get busy and see to it that these boys and girls are given the opportunities necessary to get the education and the training necessary for them to end up in a better economic situation than their migrant parents. So I shall vote -against the Prouty amendment. and I shall also vote against the Javits amendment. because. in my judgment. the Javits amendment does not deal with the real problem of doing something relating to the children of migrant workers.
