In a colloquy yesterday afternoon in which several Senators. including the Senator from Mississippi. engaged. the statement which has just been made by the distinguished Senator from Mississippi was made relative to the work of the IRO and the evidence which was submitted by officials of the Displaced Persons Commission and by the immigration authorities as to the actual practice of the IRO organization. It seems to me that In determining a definition. which I understand is now the burden of the committee. Senators must resolve that issue on the basis of whether the definition in the present law permits the IRO to do what the Senator from Mississippi says it is doing in actual practice. and whether it is necessary for us to adopt a new definition which will prescribe standards under which the IRO. the Displaced Persons Commission. and the immigration authorities will act in this matter by authorization of Congress. Am I correct in that?
