Misstatement 3: The Senator from Mississippi stated. on page 2635 of the RECORD. that there is no adequate screening of the displaced persons. I believe that the remarks made by the junior Senator from New York on Saturday. March 4. on pages 28032809 sufficiently disprove that statement and clearly show that this screening is the most rigorous in American immigration history. Misstatements 4. 5. 6. 7. and 8 all deal with the same subject. and are to be found in the twentyseventh. twentyeighth. and thirtyfifth paragraphs of page 2835 of the RECORD. Those statements allege that the Displaced Persons Commission approves the admittance of persofts "when an investigation has shown that they do not meet the qualifications of the act. or that they are criminals or are Communists." The Senator from Mississippi goes on to make much of the alleged failure of the Displaced Persons Commission to await the results of researches in the Berlin documentation center before certifying displaced persons for consideration by the consular and immigration services for admission into the United States. Emphasis is laid on a statement by one Displaced Persons Commission official that a "calculated risk" is taken when such certifications are made in advance of the receipt of information from the Berlin documentation center. The fact is.
