The Displaced Persons Act attempted to look after people who were stranded in the areas of Europe which had been occupied by the Nazis. or who were then the victims of concentration camps and slave labor camps. and so forth. The Refugee Relief Act seeks to take care of refugees from areas which the Communists took over after World War II as I described. in Eastern Germany. Poland. Czechoslovakia. Venezia Giulia. and other areas around Trieste. and also escapees from areas behind the Iron Curtain. I will ask the gentleman to note the figure I was just going to mention: There are stated to be 21/2 million unsettled escapees and refugees in free Europe now and this was some effort to relieve that problem.
