No. 3. To keep these camps permanently operated. and as my good friend the gentleman from Maine. FRANK FELLOWS. the chairman of our Subcommittee on Immigration. pointed out. it would cost us in the neighborhood of $75.000.000 a year. I am going to say. FRANK. that I agree with you thoroughly when you take into consideration the fact that the Army spends a considerable sum in addition to the $75.000.OO appropriated by Congress. Really. the United States of America is paying practically every dollar of the bill. and if we keep the DPs there for 10 years it will cost us around $2.000.000.000. Yes. my friends. what is last but not least. we have to make up our minds. as to whether or not we will allow orderly immigration into the United States of America so as to set an example for the receiving nations under the PCIRO. There perhaps are a few misfits among the DPs just as there are among people in other countries of the world. You have some who are lazy. some who will not work. of course.
