It Is anticipated that the problems encountered in the operation of the present act will be of real interest to the Senate in its consideration of the above proposals. In this connection. the Senate presumably will be concerned with the operation of the present act as regards the eligibility for admission to the United States of displaced persons temporarily absent from the specified areas on January 1. 1948. It is my understanding that by reason of doubt on the part of the Displaced Persons Commission as to the meaning of section 2 (c) (1) of Public Law 774. a group of displaced persons employed by the Army in connection with the return to the United States of the World War II dead. and temporarily absent from Germany on January 1. 1948. are currently riot being processed for -immigration under the act. This is. a matter of concern to me and I would be deeply appreciative if you would forward information relative to this situation for my use in connection with Senate consideration of the above proposals. With kindest personal regards and best wishes.
