mmm Section Two -- Page Four THE McHENRY PLA1NDEALER Thursday. June 17, 1965 wrr Few issues before the Congress pack :the emotional wallop of the pending Immigration Bill. In addition, few measures have evoked as great a volume of correspondence, petitions, etc. The Immigration Bill which consists of amendments to the so-called Walter- McCarran Immigration Act of 1952 has been regarded by some as an opening of the floodgates for wholesale admission of Orientals, Africans or--even . worse--Communists. Congressman Michael A. Feighan, Democrat of Ohio, a staunch subscriber to Americanism programs of the American Legion and various patriotic groups, has served as chairman of the Immigration Subcommittee considering this important legislation. Recently Congressman Feighan presented a compromise bill in the U. S. House of Representatives (H.R. 8662) and issued various authoritative and significant statements on the problem of immigration. In prefacing his recommendations, Congressman Feighan declared that the hearings conducted by his committee have established one central fact beyond any doubt: "that our present method of immigrant admissions, involving several systems, is inadequate, misleading and in need of immediate revision." • With respect to those who regard the national origins and quota system as inviolate and indispensable, a few developments under this system may come as quite a shock. For instance, with a Greek quota of 308 per year, more than 2.- 500 Greek immigrants have been actually admitted during each of the past ten years. During this same period, with an Italian quota of approximately 5,000 per year, more than 15,000 per year have been admitted; and with a Japanese quota of 185 per year, almost 5,000 per year have obtained immigrant status. While the established quota limit under the national origins system was established at 158,- 361 per year, the fact is that more than 300,000 immigrants have been admitted annually under the existing program. In the bill sponsored by Congressman Feighan, the following new principles would govern our nation's iivimigration policy: (1> an over-all ceiling of '225,000 immigrant admissions per year "for all purposes" would become effective; (2) existing preference waiting lists would be wiped out with the exception of the waiting lists for Italy which is now in excess of 100,000 and will take some time to satisfy; (31 immediate family members of United States citizens will receive first consideration enabling families to be reunited where the relationship is that of spouse, child, parent, brother or sister; (4) professional persons with skills and talents needed in the United States will be granted immigrant, status without delay; (5) other persons with skills founded bV the Secretary of Labor to be unavailable or in short supply in this country would be entitled to preference; and (fit refugees from Communist tyranny in limited numbers would be granted temporary refuge in this country upon a finding that they were unable ! to return to their homelands. Residents of the 12th Congressional District of Illinois h?ive a particular interest in the proposed Immigration Bill by reason of the fact that members of many nationality groups have taken up residence here, principally in Lake county. Large communities of Poles, Greeks, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, Finns, Swedes, Slovenians, Slovaks, Serbs, Ukrainians, Croatians, Armenians and others in the Waukegan-North Chicago area as well as the large number of Italians located in the Highwood area provide a great living testimony of experience with existing immigration laws and the importance «of revisions along the lines recommended by Congressman Feighan and his colleagues on the Immigration ^Subcommittee. The measure has yet to come before the House Judiciary Committee where it may . undergo further amendments befcre reaching the House Floor. All- that, seems certain at this time is that substantial amendments to the existing immigration laws will be enacted at this session of t ho'Congress. In the words of Congressman Feighan-: "The time has conie for a selective immigration program with qualitative and quantitative controls- geared to our domestic requirements and consistent with our international commitments."
