So year before last. after we had the first hearing in the metropolitan dense areas. and then began last year in the summer when we had further hearings in the field and also hear in Washington. I pointed out in the RECORD that the patience would soon be out and that we would begin to see in our country such things as have already been registered. and for some time in Berlin. in Brussels. in Paris. in London. of rent squatters. violence resulting from that because of the similarity of conditions that had crept into those societies as now confront America. particularly but not exclusively in the dense urban areas. The truth is that there is as much if not more dire need and poverty in the rural areas and very particularly in these very special sectors of a minority within a minority known as migrant workers. It seems to me folly. as it always has since I have been in politics. to sit and wait until something happens. that you do not have to be a prophet. a seer. a genius to know it is inevitable. reading human history and not do anything by way of anticipatory action. So I. after much insistence. was able to get the staff to research the statutes for those bits of legislative action that had worked. the Homeowners Loan Corporation. for example.
