This sounds very inconsistent tn me and it is very difficult to explain. I have sympathized with those who have expressed apprehension. particularly from the forces of organized labor. but organized labor has also seemed to me to be hypocritical. It is worried about its own immediate interests. yes. that its standard of labor ought not to be eroded. and that is good. and that ought to be protected. but I think they have a responsibility. too. and it seems inconsistent with their failure to raise the same argument that they are raising against the Mexican legal or illegal immigrant when they have not done so in the case of the Cuban immigrant. The Cuban immigrant has had the same impact on the economy of Miami. but I have yet to see the same attitude expressed toward the Cuban immigrant that has been shown toward the Mexican immigrant. There Is certainly a double standard here. Mr.
