I hope. would attempt to defend a preference of one race or religion over another in a country committed by basic law to racial tolerance and religious freedom. There is another practical consideration which we should not forget about this legislation. Our taxpayers are now putting up about $70.000.000 a year to meet nearly onehalf of the total budget for the operation of the International Refugee Organization. which is concerned with the maintenance of these displaced persons camps in Europe. This drain on our taxpayers will continue until this international problem is solved. Every time a family is brought to this country or. indeed. to any other country. the burden of this obligation is proportionately shifted from all of the taxpayers to the sponsor. either an organization or an Individual. who gives the assurances necessary to bring in a displaced person.
