I reached the figure of 75.000 in two ways. You can look at it either way. and it is necessarily an arbitrary figure. With the number of refugees coming into the country right now. this would be the lowest year we have had for some time for refugees. If the flow continues at its present rate we will accept about 75.000 refugees into this country this year. The other way of looking at 75.000 is that it is a little less than half of what we accepted last year. It is admittedly an arbitrary figure. but one which I think will cause the Congress to look very carefully If the President says he want more than that.
