The pending bill uses the words "decent. safe. and sanitary." as relating to housing. On page 3. line 2. the language is. "shall not become public charges and will have decent. safe. and sanitary housing without displacinc some other person from such housing." The amendment merely would change the words "decent. safe. and sanitary" to "adequate." In other words. those who are responsible for the enforcement of the act would be permitted to allow a displaced person to come in if he were to be adequately housed without displacing another person. and they would not have to determine that it was a decent place. that it was a safe place. or that it was a sanitary place. The interpretation of those words would make it very difficult for the immigration authorities to pass on the admission of the- immigrants. whereas if the words were "adequate" the provision would be sufficient.
