Speech #810186813

I think that these decisions as to eligibility under the act * * * which is an interpretation of IROs constitijtion. that decision should be made by citizens of the United States. I invite the attention of Senators to that statement. Here is a senior officer of the Displaced Persons Commission who says that the decisions as to eligibility should be initiated by citizens of the United States. He is the only senior officer with immigration experience. The others were put there by UNRRA and are former employees of UNRRA and former employees of voluntary agencies whose duty it was to rush immigrants in here. law or no law.
