Mr. President. on August 11. 1959. I introduced S. 2513. to authorize the admission into the United States of certain refugees. as a legislative means. in my opinion. of carrying out obligations and meeting responsibilities of the United States in the world refugee year. The world refuged year runs from July 1. 1959. until June 30. 1960. The United Nations. with the necessary cooperation of the countries throughout the world. hopes to solve some of the critical problems concerning refugees who are outside their homelands because of war or other armed hostilities. political situations. or natural disasters. The plight of many of these stateless persons appears hopeless unless the nations of the world work together in giving them grounds for hope rather than despair. I ask unanimous consent that there be printed in the Appendix of the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD an article written by William R. Frye. published in the Sunday Star of Washington. D.C.. August 30. 1959. entitled "San Sabba Symbol of Tragedy in Worlds Refugee Camps."
