I think I should point out to you the factand I have just received these figures a few moments ago from the chairman of the Displaced Persons Commissionthat as of today there have been 195.000 assurances validated. That means just this: That somewhere in the United States there are 195.000 people who have expressed their willingness to find a job. without displacing an American worker. and to provide adequate housing for that person. without displacing an American family. At that point I think it is very important to point out this very. very essential thing about this whole program: We contribute about 70 percent to the operating costs of the International Refugee Organization. This organization is today maintaining these people in camps in Europe. Under this program. those people who are being thus maintained come to somebody in the United States and thereby shift the burden from the backs of the taxpayers of America to somebody who has found a place in our economy for them.
