Even the administrators of this program now concede that amendments are necessary to the act. A year ago they said that no amendments were necessary. Now the President proposes some amendments and those in charge of the administration of this program are urging the Congress to follow the Presidents recommendations. Their conversion is tardyand has been costly to the United States. And who can say what the cost has been to the human beings who have been forced to endure so much longer the sufferings and privations which have been experienced by the refugees and escapees from behind the Iron Curtain. That cost cannot be measured. It can only be felt.
