12 National Groups
Issue Pamphlet Urging
McCarran Act Revision

Twelve national organizations
with a membership of at least
20,000,000 Americans announced
publication of "The Fence," a
pamphlet calling for immediate
revision of the McCarran-Wal-
ter Immigration Act.
In cartoons and simple text;
the pamphlet is the first popular
interpretation of the intricacies
of United States immigration
policy: It explans the urgent
•need of change in the law—a
view held in common by the
sponsoring organizations, which
include the American Jewish
Committee and the National
Council of Jewish Women.
"The Fence" indicates that the
quota system set up by the
McCarran-Walter Act is racist
and un-American, and that U.S.
naturalized citizens—seven mil-
lion of them—are in danger of
being - treated as second-class

Pointing out that President
Eisenhower . strongly favors re-
vision of the Act, the pamphlet
quotes the President assaying,
"The immigrant has brought
greatness to our land • . . Only
second-class Americanism toler-
ates second-class citizenship. It's
time to get rid of both, and that
includes rewriting the unfair
provisions of the McCarran-
Walter Immigration Act."
The pamphlet declares that
the United States needs "a
democratic immigration law that
upholds our American ideals of
welcoming the oppressed and
judging people by worth, not
'birthplace. That kind of law
also would help our foreign
policy by showing the world we
practice what we preach."
The pamphlet will be used
among the millions of members
of the sponsoring organizations,
and will be distributed through-
out the country by other church,
labor and civic groups.
The pamphlet calls on all
Americans to write their views
on immigration to- their con-
gressmen and newspaper edi-
tors, and to work through the
organizations with which they
are affiliated for the Law's re-
vision.
Copies of the pamphlet may
be obtained from any of the
sponsoring organizations.
