Frank Taylor. director of its industrial development division told me that over 200 Canadian businesses. employing over 7.500 local residents. have been established in the Buffalo. N.Y. area. Who knows how many others would have taken this step if this immigration problem were resolved? We must take every available step to build upon this base and to provide jobs for so many of our citizens whose personal tragedies are reflected in our unemployment statistics. In recent years. our immigration policies have focused upon humanitarian concerns. as is illustrated by the tragic circumstances of the "boat people." While we should retain this focus. we should also be giving consideration to those people who want to immigrate. and in so doing will provide many needed jobs. We can and should do both. As a Nation. we have always prided ourselves on our entrepreneurial spirit and initiative.
