The signal which should not go out from America. after the debacle of the Vietnam war. Is that we are either isolationists or heartless. Yet that is the grave danger from both events. what occurred in Phnom Penh and Saigon and what has now occurred In some voices raised Inhospitably as far as the refugees are concerned. As has been properly said. on the economic front it is a drop In the bucket to take 30.000 or 40.000 heads of families. most of whom will prove to be extremely useful citizens. While we have almost 9 million unemployed. we have 81 million who are employed. I think Americas heart can find a place for the 30.000 or 40.000 as we are finding places today for a few hundred thousands of normal Immigrants who come into the United States under our Immigration laws. Mr. President.
