Mr. President. once more we are called upon not to substitute the word for the deed. International Refugee Year begins July 1. What are we in the United States going to do for wretched. homeless men and women who have fought against Communist tyranny and now are consigned to dreary refugee camps? The Zellerbach Commission. headed by Harold L. Zellerbach. of the Crown Zellerbach Paper Corp.. has urged that our country admit some 50.000 of the 200.000 refugees still in European camps. This is only 25.000 refugees a year. Surely our vast and wealthy Nation can make such a contribution to humanitarianism. to liberty. and to human dignity. The Washington -Post and Times Herald for April 12. 1959. voiced such a plea with eloquence and firmness. and I ask unanimous consent that this editorial. entitled "Action on Refugees." be printed in the Appendix of the RECORD.
