I appreciate the thoughtfulness of the Chair. because. to my mind. this is an important amendment to which every Senator should give due consideration. On Monday the senior Senator from New Jersey . who is a strong supporter of the substitute bill. agreed with my contention that my offered cutoff date of April 21. 1947. was practical. reasonable. and realistic. and that it would clearly distinguish between those wardisplaced persons for whom we are undertaking to provide maximum relief and the untold thousands of political refugees and expellees who have entered Germany and Austria from the east since April 1947. Those in this latter category are deserving of consideration as a separate question. but no man alive can define them as being wardisplaced persons. Some months ago the administration offered a displacedpersons bill.
