All we. the people of the United States. are called on to do by this bill is to do our share. I think a very important point in respect to these displaced persons is to inquire whether we are doing our share. Right now the maximum. admissions from among the displaced persons in the occupied areas who come in under the Presidents directive and Under the quota laws is about 17.000 a year. while Great Britain is taking ata rate of about 60.000 DPs a year. and their population is something like 30 percent of our own. Canada. sparsely populated Canada. with onetenth of our population. is taking 15.000 DPs this year. Australia with a small population of about 6.000.000 is scheduled to take about 7.500 DPs this year. and the great United States with 140.000.000 population. when we are at the peak of full employment. is taking a total of just about 17.000 DPs a year.
