Session #80 · 1947–49

Speech #800211864

I have before me an editorial from the Denver Post of June 13. 1948. the heading of which is "Cutting out the bias." in which appears this paragraph: A second provision of the Senate bill. plainly containing an antiJewish bias. limits eligible DPs to those refugees who entered the camps of western Europe before December 22. 1945. Most Jews. who comprise 18 percent of the total displaced persons. came to the refugee centers after that date. Certainly there is an inference in the editorial statement and in the fact that justifies a possible assumption there might have been some conscious design to deny eligibility to the Jews.
