The touch was in evidence in the great piece he sent from the Pacific jungles on V-E Day which reminded celebrating Americans that the war was not over for young Yanks trying to dodge Japanese bombs and bullets. His unfaltering romance with the Cleve- land Indians and his unfailing dislike for the Yankee ownership are topics with which he has entertained "Plain Dealing" readers since away back when. His aversion for showboaters in any sport and for the phoniness of the wrestling pro- fession certify a personal integrity that has made him the confidant of a host of admirers and friends. On this newspaper, "Cobby" will be long remembered for a multiplicity of talents but mostly for his flawless prose, a commodity with which the profession of sports writing is not overly endowed: A perfectionist, he likes to write about perfection. A pro, he speaks the language of pros. Of the great, he writes with the au- thority of being one of them. Equitable Revision of Our Outmoded Im- migration Policy Is Imperative EXTENSION -OF REMARKS present immigration laws. This bill is known as H.R. 7700 and I myself have instroduced a bill that is practically identical to it, H.R. 8883. These bills, and many others of like nature, would, fundamentally, along with other revisions and reforms, elimi- nate the present inequitable discrimina- tory overall quota system and set up a new method, with no great increase, of quota allocations without regard to na- tional origins; they would insure that an individual with special talents that could be used here would not be faced with inordinate delay in admittance be- cause of his birthplace and they would halt the existing hardships on separated families from Italy or Greece or other countries who must now most often ex- perience agonizing postponements of family unity while large quotas for Eng- land and Ireland remain unused. Mr. Speaker, I most earnestly hope this Congress will not adjourn without taking action on these pending revisions in our immigration laws that will demonstrate, both to ourselves and the world, that we are really serious in desiring to eradi- cate discrimination based on race and national origin.

As a glaring example of discrimination a very heavy priority is given to immigrant applicants of the countries of Great Britain, Ireland, and Germany, yet there were more than 41,000 unused numbers in the last Brit- ish quota. On the other hand countries like Israel, India, China and many others are permitted only 100 immigrants into the United States per year. A brief review of the situation in other countries in southern and eastern Europe demonstrates similar and even greater dis- crimination. For example, Italy's yearly quota of 5,666 must by some supposed mirac- ulous process attempt to cover well over 250,- 000 applicants. Greece has been granted a quota of 308 to process a backlog of over 100,000 qualified applicants. Poland is per- mitted only 6,488 persons per year to some- how be allocated among more than 60,000 annual applicants. I feel certain that you and the great ma- jority of Americans would judge this situa- tion to be intolerable and it is, indeed, a matter which has seriously hurt the prestige of the United States, both at home and abroad.

EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. ABRAHAM J. MULTER OF NEW YORK IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Mr. MULTER. Mr. Speaker, I com- mend to the attention of our colleagues the following thoughtful article by Mr. Roscoe Drummond which appeared in the New' York Herald Tribune of Au- gust 10, 1964. Mr. Drummond rightfully argues that it is time for demonstrations. on behalf of civil rights to stop, as the only pur- :pose t iey now serve is to shield violence and crime. He applauds responsible Negro leaders like the Reverend Martin :Luther King, Roy Wilkins, and Philip Randolph, for, their action to stop these demonstrations. The. article follows : CIVIL RIGHTS AND WRONGS: WHY A MORATO- RIUM ON DEMONSTRATIONS? (By Roscoe Drummond) WASEINGTON-=After American Negro citi- zens have borne so much so long-lynchings, brutalities, massive indignity, and almost total denial of their- rights of citizenship, it Is not ,easy for the Negro leaders to say any to expect to be instantly heeded. "Be calm, be quiet., wait-and see." After mass demonstrations have proved so useful in the past, it takes maturity and courage and wisdom on the part of the Ne- @Ta leaders to sheathe the weapon and to ask their followers to do the same. No wonder one dissident Negro activist shouts: "The only way we. got this far is because, of our demonstrations." But this "stay-in-the-streets" plea is pro- foundly wrong and the principal Negro lead- ers are as prodoundly right in urging a mor- atorium on all. "mass marches, mass picket- iig, and mass demonstrations" as when they ailed for mass demonstrations more than a ear ago and utilized the famous "freedom larch" in Washington so responsibly and effectively. They should stop because mass picketing nd. mats demonstrations are not helping the ivil rights cause one whit and are hurting is civil rights cause periously. They should stop these mass demonstra- iOns-however understandable, however ieful in the past-because they are be- ettIng violence (as in Harlem, Rochester, lid Jersey City) and are becoming the Y.deld for crime which can do nothing but lienate support which the cause of the civil ights enforcement crucially needs. They should stop because the over-riding eed today is to nourish law obsservance, in- luchng the observance of the new Civil fights Act, which can never be _nourished by w violation. plashed the central objective of putting the rights of Negro citizens into law, they should be abandoned until and unless the law is tried and found wanting. I believe that the Martin Luther Kings , the Wilkinses and the Randolphs are pro- foundly right, because equal rights for all citizens is today the law of the land and that on the day President Johnson signed the hct of Congress the Government of the United States took the issue out of the streets and put it into the courts. The central need now is to give the new law the fullest, the most faithful and the most patient opportunity to be applied. Civil disobedience is a proper and power- ful instrument of mass protest to correct a grave injustice. No one used disobedience more effectively than Mahatma Ghandi, but Where would India be today If he had con- tinued to use It against his own government after it had succeeded in gaining his na- tion's independence from the British? A very distinguished American Negro, who has long been in the midst of the fight for equal rights, former Ambassador Carl T. Rowan, now director of the U.S. Information Agency, did not put it too candidly when h o said recently: "The hour has come when bold, uncom- promising efforts must be made to free the civil rights movement from the taint of street rioters. * * * There is a crying, almost desperate, need for us,to guard that move- ment jealously against inroads by those Whose desire is to create chaos." Equal rights, which is now imbedded in the law of the land, cannot be furthered- either in the North or in the South, either for Negro citizens or for white citizens-by civil wrongs. August 18 "damages America in the eyes of the world * * * deprives us of able immi- grants who contributions we need * * * inflicts needless personal cruelty on large numbers of American citizens and resi- dents. And it does not work." I strongly urge all my colleagues to read, the following letter: KENNEDY ASSAILS VISA BAN; ATTORNEY GEN- ERAL ADVOCATES ENII TO NATIONAL ORIGINS SYSTEM To the EDITOR: In a letter to the editor published August 10, William A. Turner de- plores the pending administration bill to eliminate the national '-origins system from our Immigration laws. Mr. Turner says he believes the present system is satisfactory and that in 36 years as a Foreign Service officer of the State Department he has never heard foreigners criticize the national origins provision of our immigration laws. It is my firm conviction that this national origins system pauses our Nation great harm both at home and abroad, and that it should be eradicated from our law. This national origins system was conceived in a spirit of mistrust of certain racial groups, in southern and eastern Europe and else- where. Its original stated purpose was bald discrimination-to preserve what was be- lieved to be the racial and ethnic composition of our population in 1924. This system is a blot on our relations with other countries. It violates our basic na- tional philosophy because it judges individu- als not on their worth, but solely on their place of Mirth-or even where their ancestors happen to be born. I know from my own experiences abroad how deeply this system hurts us. I have been asked how a country which professes that all men are equal could permit a system which treated immigrants so unequ.E1iy. It is a difficult criticism to answer. UNFILLED NEEDS This system fails to fulfill our own needs at home. An unskilled laborer from a north- ern European country can come here with- out delay or difficulty. But a particularly well-qualified scientist, or engineer-or chef-from one of a number of other coun- The Attorney General and Immigration Policy EXTENSION OF REMARKS HON. WILLIAM F. RYAN OF NEW YORK IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Tuesday, August 18, 1964 Mr. RYAN of New York. Mr. Speaker, with the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the antipoverty bill, this Congress has brought our society closer to to the goal of equality. As part of this all important effort, the immigration law should be revised now. I have intro- duced H.R. 7740, which would do so. Our present immigration laws based on the 1920 census and the quota system are grossly inequitable and inconsistent with our fundamental principles. The Attorney General, Robert F, Kennedy, has stated the case for the passage of the administration's immigration bill, which I have cosponsored, in a letter to the New York Times published on August 14, 1964, The Attorney General points out that the present immigration system and many others like them. Yet all want to come here, all are needed, and all are wanted. The time has come for us to insist that the quota system be replaced by the merit sys- tem. This system inflicts cruel and unnecessary hardship on the families of many American citizens and resident aliens. Again and again they are deprived of the chance to bring brothers and sisters or other close relatives to this country because quotas in their native countries are oversubscribed. The national origins quota system makes it easier for a man to bring a maid to this country than to bring his mother; a system which can so distort human values must be revised. Finally--and ironically-the national ori- gins system d9es not even achieve its own purposes. It assigns an overwhelming num- ber of quota visas to the countries of north- ern and western Europe-which do not use them all. For example, out of about 83,000 numbers assigned annually to the British Isles, only about 32,000 visas are used. The 51,000 unused numbers cannot be re- assigned; they are lost. Meanwhile, the quotas of many other countries are over- subscribed with the names of thousands of eligible immigrants eager to come to this country. Thus the ratio of immigration Approved For Release 2005/01/05 : CIA-RDP66B00403R000100080017-3 j 964 "Approved For ReltMa?ffl sought by the national origins system is not maintained, nor can it be. SPECIAL LAWS Further, the pressures which result from this system have forced Congress to enact special laws from time to time in recent years authorizing visas for people waiting in oversubscribed countries. The result is a further departure from the ratio which the national origins system was designed to continue. This system damages America in the eyes of the world, It deprives us of able immi- grants whose contributions we need. It in- flicts needless personal cruelty on large num- bers of American citizens and residents. And it doesn't work. Certainly, no plainer or more compelling arguments could be made for changing this system. The administration's pending immigra- tion bill seeks to change that system and establish a system that works in the na- tional interest. It would increase the amount of authorized immigration by only a fraction-from 157,000 to 165,000. But it would, at the same time, gradually eliminate the present system and provide us with the flexibility necessary to deal with problems of fairness and of foreign policy. Both major parties and four successive Presidents have urged a revision of the im- migration laws. President Kennedy recom- mended this legislation to Congress and President Jo)inson has firmly endorsed it. Every American should support the change. ROBERT KENNEDY, Attorney General. WASHINGTON, August 11, 1964. Housing Act of 1964 SPEECH OF HON. HAROLD D. DONOHUE OF MASSACHUSETTS IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Thursday, August 13, 1964 The House in Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union had under consideration the bill (H.R. 12175) to extend and amend laws relating to housing, urban renewal, and community facilities, and for other purposes. Mr. DONOHUE. Mr. Chairman, be- cause the evidence and expert testimony clearly show that slum clearance, urban renewal, housing for the elderly, low-cost public housing and similar programs are still urgently needed in almost every sec- tion of. this country, I consider it,a legis- lative obligation to urge support and prompt enactment of this bill, H.R. 12175, designed to extend and amend the pres- ent laws relating to housing, urban re- newal, community facilities and other purposes. The distinguished chairman of the House subcommittee and his associate members have worked long and hard to bring a reasonable. omnibus housing bill before this House and, with noticeable bipartisan effort, I think it is apparent their common.. patriotic objective has been achieved in this measure. Ad- mittedly many of the provisions are com- plex but the distinguished subcommittee chairman has patiently and exhaustively attempted to explain them all to this body. There is probably no greater chal- lenge to any of our committees than the RJM, ff W- JTo04A8080017-3 subject of housing and we are fortunate indeed to have the benefit of such a knowledgeable and conscientious com- mittee chairman with a most diligent committee membership. As an example of their conscientious- ness and diligence they have made an heroic effort in this measure to provide, against past criticism, that in no in- stance should peopled be uprooted by ur- ban renewal or any other governmental program unless such action was ap- proved at the local level and unless ade- quate provision was made for the re- housing of the affected people in good, sanitary and wholesome accommodations of either a public or private nature. One of the most practical provisions of this measure is that authorizing a program for some 3 years of graduate training of city planners. The record of .past dis- appointments in what appeared to be promising housing or renewal programs emphasizes the need for advance plan- ning based on realistic knowledge and awareness of the technical and human relations problems likely to be encoun- tered. Most of the funds recommended in this measure would provide for urban re- newal grants and an addition of some 35,000 units of public housing. Other noteworthy features include funds for direct housing loans for the elderly and appropriations to begin an imperatively needed program of low-rent housing for migrant workers. A further and most wholesome provi- sion is designed to initiate a program of low-interest loans for improving al- ready renewed areas. Another most important innovation in this measure is that which emphasizes the role of code enforcement in urban renewal objectives. This provision is designed to place more responsibility, on local authorities so that after a period of 3 years they cannot qualify for any fur- ther urban renewal assistance unless they have an adequate code enforcement impact at the local level. It seems clear that had this idea been carried out over the past years we very likely would not have such widespread slum and blight areas presently and unfortunately exist- ing in so many cities throughout this great country. Also within the provisions of this measure a single low-income person would be made eligible for public hous- ing and individual handicapped persons would be given eligibility for the pur- chase or rental of FHA housing for low or moderate income families. Mr. Chairman, the record shows that in general, the program has been well administered and it has been excep tionally free from misuse of funds or authority. Mr. Chairman, this housing bill is cer- tainly a relatively modest one. It surely seems essential for the continuation of programs that are vital to our efforts and our obligations to encourage better housing in better surroundings for all of our people. Because it is clearly in ac- cord with our national traditions, be- cause it is designed to prudently meet a foundation national need and because it is obviously intended to promote the A4399 health, the safety, and the happiness of all our citizens, I urge that it be promptly enacted.
