This excludes the socalled ethnic Germans. There has been criticism of that exclusion and the gentleman will find in the hearings on page 51 a statement from the RefugeesDefense Committee. an organization which feels they should not be excluded. Let me remind the gentleman. however. that IRO is an international organization. and as the Refugees Defense Committee pointed out in their statement. it is not within the power of the Congress of the United States to amend the constitution of an international organization. Our representative at the first meeting of iRO will be the Hon. Lewis Douglas. our Ambassador to Britain. who many will remember when he was a Member of this House and who can be depended upon to represent this country wisely and well.
