Mr. President. all of us have been concerned in recent days over the seemingly endless influx of Cuban refugees to our shores. Yesterday. the total swelled to over 100.000. and even as we begin to enforce laws preventing American boats and ships from traveling to Cuba to pick up refugees. it appears that ships of foreign registry are now engaged in this traffic in human misery. What concerns me are the numbers of Cubans who are being cynically dumped upon American shores at the behest of the Cuban Government. It is not just a matter of Cubans who seek reunification with their families living in the United States.
