He presented to me the actual files when I presided at the hearing. His superiors. who were administering the law. said. "Go ahead and justify this person anyhow." I call it "Operation Whitewash." They do not care what kind of persons are coming to this country. They say. "Whitewash them. make them eligible. get them to the honeypot of the world." The officer in charge of the immigration detail in Europe. Mr. Tripp. testified that the officers of the Displaced Persons Commission requested him to refrain from interrogating applicants concerning their eligibility under the displaced persons law so that there would be fewer cases held for investigation. It is said that the Immigration Service has the veto. but it does not exercise it. following the theory of calculated risk. Mr. Tripp testified that those officers came to him and told him not even to interrogate displaced persons. because it would hold them up. and they did not want them held up.
