State Department in Full Accord
With Detectives Of Judd Measure

all Asian and Pacific peoples"
Mr.. Rusk, however, pointed out
that the State Department was
concerned" with Section 8 of the
Judd bill which denies to alien
spouses and unmarried minor child :
rem of citizens chargeable to quotas
Of less than 200, the privilege of
immigrating into the United States
without regard to quota limitations.
He said the provision runs counter
to the trend of recent legislation by
Congress which has been to facili-
tate the entry of the alien members
of the immediate families of citi-
zens."
He added that the racial dis
elimination embodied in our immi-
grafton and naturalization legisla-
ton has, for many years, been a
cause of diss stisfaction abroad and
of uneasy concern among many of
our own citizens. This situation has
greatly complicated our relations
with Asia This strain . :.
has never been in our national inter-
est and certainly is not today"
The deputy undersecretary said
that world communism is trying
throughout Asia to identify in the
minds of Asiatic people communism
with their own national aspirations
Our record on the point Of
naturalization is handing to world
communism a cheap and easy wea-
pom which we should like to take
out of their hands,"
"As an element in the consolida-
ton of the communist world,
or the consolidation of the peoples
of the world toward freedom, we
think this bill is of exceedingly
great Importance"
He closed with: I'm short. gentle
men, we are here considering posi-
tive action which this government
can take quickly to give to the peo-
piles of Asia concrete evidence of
our good will and friendly interests.

quest the support of your committee
for such action"

The manner In which hearings
