Mr. President. the American people are deeply upset about the events surrounding the tremendous influx of Cuban refugees. Riots and skyjackings have followed in the wake of this massive exodus from Cuba as our Government has ineptly handled this problem from beginning to end. We have been a sympathetic Nation in the past. and we may be compelled -to take political refugees in the future. however. we cannot become the home for the millions of people who want to come to America. Mr. President. a recent editorial by WSPA radio and TV in Spartanburg. S.C.. deals with this problem and offers some interesting observations.
