In 1948 Malaxa initiated steps for permanent residence in the United States. applying for admission under the Displaced Persons Act. There were hearings at which witnesses told of Malaxas sinister past. which he vigorously denied. The Immigration Service made a finding in favor of Malaxa on September 26. 1951. but the recommendation failed to receive the required congressional approval. Malaxas name was then added to a joint resolution initiated in the Senate which would have had the effect of adjusting Malaxas status if passed. There are definite reports in reputable newspapers that Richard Nixon. then Senator from California. tried to get Malaxas name appended to legislation which would have permitted his entry.
