Mr. President. this is a simple amendment which says that notwithstanding any other provision of the act. the nonimmigrant visa for a visitor should not be denied to anyone because of their political beliefs. I remember when I was in the Army stationed in Germany. I visited Hyde Park in London. There on the square. along with every kind of religious and political belief. a Communist leader was standing giving his speech. A little lady with a cockney accent asked. "Why cant we speak in Moscow like you are speaking in London?" That is the essence of what we stand for.
