Mr. President. I will address myself to both subjects. First of all. recently a group of Senators. including. among others. the Senator from Connecticut and the Senator from Washington met here with President Ceausescu of Romania. and the old question of emigration was very strongly reviewed. The President of Romanias figures. differ somewhat. I believe his figures are that 400.000 Jews have left Romania. and there remain only approximately 40.000 Jews of purely Jewish origin in Romania. I am unable to say which figures are correct. but I can say that very strong representations were made to President Ceausescu. certain specific hardship cases were submitted to him.
