Let me say to the Senator that what I am concerned about here is injustice. about the fact that the Federal Government should bear the entire cost. which it would. under this proposal. What I am saying is that a small part should be borne by the State and by the county and by the city which are being immensely benefited. Here is what Life magazine had to say. in part: At a rate unprecedented among Americas major immigrant groups. the 350.000 Cubans in the Miami area have transformed themselves into a thriving. prosperous community. They comprise a fourth of the areas population. and their average income has risen to a healthy $8.000 for each family. More than half own their own houses. and they pump a total of $600 million a year into the local economy.
