sage before congressional adjourn
ment of stopgap bill to admit 100,-
600 European war refugees during

tiorI pars FOR 100000 displaced Per
sons In four years. ~
All indications are that the
original bill has no chance Of
approval at this session. So.
Mr.. Chelf said he has talked over
his proposal with other members Of
Ia five-man Judiciary Subcommittee
considering the subject and has
assurances a majority is willing to
recommend it to the full committee.
Gen. Marshall made his better
than nothing" comment on the
100, ,O00- Immigrant compromise while
testifying before the subcommittee
yesterday in support of the original
400. .000-person bill.
Mr.. Chelf modified in his measure
a claus in the original bill which
would give priority to displaced
persons who have relatives in this
country.
Under Mr.. Chelf's proposal
priority would go only to those with
relatives who served in the United
States armed forces during either
of the two World Wars.
