Testimony before the committee by field employees of the Displaced Persons Commission was to the effect that they had been ordered by the European headquarters of the Displaced Persons Commission to withdraw adverse reports from the files on cases which had been rejected. and that although. in one area. a letter indicating that the adverse report had been withdrawn was inserted in the file. this was not the practice in other areas. In six of the areas. Mr. President. there were adverse reports in the files. When the reports were taken out and the file passed on to the immigration and consular people. they had no knowledge of the adverse report. because it had been deleted and withheld on instructions of the Displaced Persons Commission in Europe. There was nothing on which to base a security check. They had no reason to exercise their veto.
