It should not be lost on the Government of Iran that U.S. officials recognize that a nation is responsible for maintaining control over its people and its students. It should not be lost on Iranian students and sympathizers that there are more Iranian nationals in the United States than there are Americans in Iran. The latest figures available to me indicate some 50.000 Iranian students are herethe largest group from any foreign countryand an additional 36.000 Iranians are here on other visas. Both groups are here as our guests. Many are living off the largesse and benefits of our Nation and its economy.
