That still remains the case. I want the RECORD to show that the Health. Education. and Welfare Department. as well as the Immigration Service. have both done. in my opinion. a very. very fine job. and I want the RECORD to show equally that. in my opinion. the citizens of the Miami area. where the first impact of this problem has been felt. have done a fine job. The record shows that. insofar as hospitalization costs of the refugees are concerned. that has been worked out on a completely agreeable basis between HEW and the local authorities. The same is true with reference to the school program. where a good many thousand children of Cuban refugees are in the public schools of the Miami area. The same is true with reference to the resettlement program. because now more and more other areas of the Nation are taking over large portions of this refugee problem. I simply want to express here and now my appreciation to the two distinguished Senators whom I have named for their continued recognition of and cooperation in this problem. and at the same time to express my prideand I do have pridein the cooperative handling of this program. which has called for cooperation from the public authorities of Dade County. Miami. and of Florida generally. and that cooperation has been freely and gladly extended.
