That is that the committee is not interested in and will not entertain legislation to permit immigration into this country from Okinawa or other of the Ryukyus when Japan takes over. With that assurance. I am not so much disturbed. But I hope that the assurance the gentleman has given the House will be left in the RECORDthe statement that the committee will not entertain legislation to bring Ryukyuans into this country. There are thousands on Okinawa. and I am sure there are a good many hundred. if not several thousands. who would find it to their advantage later on to come to the United States rather than to go back under Japanese dominion.
