Mr. President. with those preliminary remarks. I rise to support this particular amendment by making these formal commer.ts:The purpose of this amendment Is to establish a fair. adequate. and just basis for the selection of displacedpersons immigrants. It provides selection on the basis of a cross section of the groups and elements of displaced persons that existed in camps on January 1. 1948. in Italy and in the three western zones of Germany and Austria. At the request of the displaced persons. and for ease in control and administration. the Allied authorities in the International Relief Organization established the displaced persons in camps or centers according to groups and elements with a national. cultural. or historical affinity.
