Those persons came to us and are still here. Under the Displaced Persons Act we have taken in approximately 134.000 up to this time. In addition to that. during the past year alone we took in. under the quota law. 180.000 persons under quotas. During the past year we have brought into the United States as visitors. under visitors visas. 500.000 persons. Will any Senator tell me how many of the 500.000 were not displaced persons. Will any Senator tell me how many of them were displaced persons? I say they are still in the United States. If they were not displaced persons. why did many of them remain over the time permitted by their visitors visas?
