Passage of the substitute will assure the rest of the world that America plans to fulfill its international commitments. Passage will offer a haven here to the 18.000 valiant Poles who fought with General Anders army. to 4.000 White Russians driver from China by the Communist forces ala now living under dreadful conditions in the Philippines. It will. as well. furnish relief to 10.000 Greek refugees. to 5.000 displaced orphans. andif the amendment submitted by the senior Senator from New York and myself is adopted. to 5.000 refugees from Titos communism who have fled from portions of Venezia Giulia. In short. a total of 339.000 refugees from such great groups as the Czechs. the Slovaks. the Ukrainians. the Poles. the Hungarians. the Estonians. the Latvians. the Lithuanians. and to those who have fled from Yugoslavia and Tito. And. of course. by adopting the amendments developed by the junior Senator from Illinois. the Senator from Wisconsin . and myself. the German ethnic expellees will get some real relief instead of a mere empty promise. which I believe is about all that would result if th 3 January 25 version of the bill were to be adopted. America has played fair in her efforts to bring about world peace. and I am confident that by adopting the substitute. we will demonstrate once more to the world that we are still willing to play fair in carrying out our international responsibilities.
