Speech #810189061

I would not favor the pending bill. There is nothing before the Senate to show that the new Commission will employ the same type of employees that were employed by UNRRA. The Senator from Michigan wanted to place the power in the Displaced Persons Commission. through an amendment. His amendment was defeated. So the Congress voted. with clear intent. what it wanted. namely. a provision that the law should be administered by immigration and consular officials. It was so provided in the act. They flouted the Congress so they could take the word of IRO for their definition ofa displaced person eligible to come to America.
