The quality of that work can best be demonstrated by a brief summary of the work of ICEM itself. Since its creation in 1951. ICEM has been directly responsible for the resettlement of 1.350.000 refugees and migrants throughout the free world. It was on the initiative of the United States that ICEM was formed. succeeding the International Refugee Organization with wider responsibilities and greater scope. It is important to remember that ICEM was established by the Congress own Initiative in 1951. acting through the House Committee on the Judiciary. As a result. the first conference directed at a working organization was attended by 16 nations when it was convened in Brussels.
