Mr. Speaker. I recently had the privilege of representing the Judiciary Committee at the 33d session ofthe Intergovernmental Committee for EUropean Migration in Geneva. Switzerland. ICEM. a 33member government international organization. has resettled 1.8 million refugees and migrants since it was established under the initiation of the United States in 1951. At the 33d session. particular emphasis was placed upon the program for movement of specialized. technically qualified persons to Latin America to meet the needs of that rapidly developing area. Plans were also made for special recognition of the 20th anniversary of ICEM in 1971. I was impressed with the qualifications. personality. and leadership exhibited by the Director of ICEM.
