Mr. and Mrs. Houts legally adopted Carol Min. thus giving a de jure status to a relationship that already existed de facto. Under her present student visa. Carol Min has received an extension from the Immigration Service to December 13. 1969. at which time her student visa will expire. It is possible. of course. for her to apply for an adjustment of status to that of permanent resident. with all the attendant delays and uncertainties. This is a time when her treatment as a polio patient has a minimum remaining period of 10 years. This private relief bill is intended to eliminate those delays and uncertainties by granting her immediate right to naturalization under all other normal requirements of the naturalization process. thus providing her access to the full rights and responsibilities of American citizenship. I can personally attest to Carol Mins deservingness to those rights and to her willingness and ability to live up to those responsibilities. I ask my colleagues for unanimous support of this worthy case and I give my personal assurances that this young new citizen will be a credit to our Nation and to this distinguished body.
