I think it is most important that we keep in mind that quotas have increased without justification. Imports of beef. veal. mutton. cheese. and eggs are substantially higher than the levels of a year ago. Imports of meat subject to the 1964 quota law. for example. were almost 40 percent higher during the first 10 months of 1966 than they were during the same period in 1965. It seems to me that. first. the error in reporting the number of cattle and. second. the great increase in imports make it essential that there be early hearings and action by the Senate on the bill which the distinguished Senator from Nebraska is introducing today. This legislation would be of great value to our State.
