William Verity is an acknowledged expert in this field. and I believe the President has decided he wants Mr. Verity to perform this crucial task. I would. however. say. Mr. President. that I do have serious reservations about some of Bill Veritys past statements concerning trade with the Soviet Union and his opposition to the JacksonVanik amendment. I believe there is no justification for restrictions on emigration such as the Soviet Union has. and I have consistently supported the JacksonVanik amendment as a leverage tool. I trust Mr. Verity to abide by the letter and spirit of the JacksonVanik amendment so long as it is the law.
