Mr. President. in explanation of the amendment. let me point out the proof which I received and heard before the Judiciary Committee in regard to the manner in which displaced persons were received in this country. If we turn to page 896 of the committee hearings. we find a letter written by the Commissioner of Immigration. 479g CON( Mr. Miller. to Mr. Tripp. an official under the Displaced Persons Act. in which Mr. Miller surrenders a considerable amount of his own authority. delegating to Mr. Tripp authority which properly belongs to him and should be exercised by him. I have a feeling that the displaced persons who are admitted to this country should be admitted by American citizens. not by citizens of other countries.
