In addition. there were more than 200.000 persons. not in camps. who were receiving various IRO services. Of this total of more than 560.513 displaced persons. fully half are in the United States zone of Germany. All the evidence would indicate that the International Refugee Organization will not be able to complete its task by June 30. 1950. and that this Government will be called upon again to provide a substantial sum of money as a contribution to the IRO or for direct care and maintenance of the remaining displaced persons. or for both. So it becomes obvious that the earlier the action we may take in favor of House bill 4567. the lighter will be our financial burden where the matter of displaced persons may be concerned. Mr. President. no matter how we regard this displacedpersons problemwhether from the standpoint of our capacity to absorb those who might seek refuge in the United States under the terms of House bill 4567 or from the standpoint of our continuing financial obligation as members of the International Refugee Organization or from the standpoint of direct care and assistance or from the standpoint of our national tradition and historic humanitarianIsmthe sooner House bill 4567 is enacted. the better for ourselves and for the world. Mr. President.
