Many Republicans agree, are angry at the anti-Catholic, anti- Semitic restrictions. | The Senate accepted the bill in its present form, because it came up so late that to have fought for corrective amendments would | have meant no displaced-persons “egislation at all. ! The bill is the handiwork of| West Virginia’s Republican Senator | Chapman Revercomb, and the' methods he used to foist it upon his fellow Senators are some oOf | the most shameful in the history of the 80th Congress. Soon after he was gned to head a judici-| ary subcommittee to study the problem, Revercomb bluntly told colleagues: “We could solve this| DP problem all right if we could work out some bill that would" keep out the Jews.” i That is exactly what he did. By legalistic sleight-of-hand, he put through a bill admitting 200,000 of Hitler's victims to this country —but on Hitler’s terms. Those who'! entered Germany after December | 22, 1945, cannot be admitted. It so happens that most of the Jews, new in refugee camps, fled into Germany from the Polish pogroms —after the December 22, 1945, deadline. Revercomb's bill also assigns 50| percent of the displaced-persons| quuta to the Baltic states for no' valid reason, except that these! states are predominantly Protes- tant. - What's more, the bill re-| quires that 50 percent of those who come to this country must be farmers—in spite of petitions from employers and labor groups, ask- tion. ing for trained garment workers ! to fill the shortage in that field.
