In addition. information provided showed that during the fiscal years 1963 through 1966. almost onehalf of the 2.863 applications for waiver of the 2year foreign residency requirement which were granted were granted to physicians. surgeons. and nurses. Thus. it is apparent that the medical and allied fields are playing a significant part in all aspects of the exchange program. and a part which is a vital interest to all in view of the fact that the whole world. not just the United States. is facing everincreasing shortages of such trained. qualified personnel. It is our hope that the testimony to be received tomorrow will provide further useful information for our review of the immigration aspects of these programs.
