Forty percent of the documents offered to our consuls abroad. in connection with the making of applications for visas for entrance into the United States. were found to be forged. It is not correct to say that the persons presenting those forged documents were admitted to the United States. Those persons were applying for visas to enter the United States under quotas under the Presidential directive of December 22. 1945. which gives a preference to displaced persons. under the quotas. Very few of the people of the Baltic states could enter the United States under such an arrangement. because they had to come here under the small quotas which applied to their countries. On the other hand. Poland has a fairly large quotamore than 5.000. The evidence In respect to 40 percent of the persons having forged documents applies to the supporting evidence and applications and other documents which had to be offered when persons applied for visas.
