Mr. President. the present law. like the constitution of the International Refugee Organization. requires that in order to be eligible. a displaced person who has returned to one of the occupied zones after leaving must have been returned as a result of enemy action or of war circumstances. The Kilgore substitute eliminates this requirement. The purpose of this amendment is to restore the requirement. It is obvious that without such a requirement this section holds out inducement to persons who have succeeded in getting out of the occupied zones into othe: countries to flock back into the occupied zones if they want to come to the United States. bedause without the requirement which this amendment proposes to restore even former displaced persons who have been resettled in other countries of the world could gain admission to the United States by first going back into one of the occupied zones.
