the quotas were exhausted, they were obliged
to come in under student visas. This meant
they had to return to their homelands behind
the Iron Curtain when their studies were
completed.
Recently, however, Congress passed bill
admitting up to 2O5, 900 DPS in the next two
years. Under the terms of this BILL with
which Sudduth is much pleased, as many as
5000, here on temporary visas, may apply
for permanent residence.
No Future in Germany
BUT that's only part of the picture. There
are now Bill says, ''in the western zones of
Germany and Austria, almost million dis
placed persons. The majority were brought
there by the Nazis as slave labor from con-
quered countries There is no future for them
in Germany - only mutual hatred between
them and their former oppressors. And it is
no use telling them to go back to their
hOmelands; too many have had bitter
taste of life under the SOviets.
''Just after the war, for instance, the Polish
Communist government distributed propa-
ganda leaflets throughout Europe. Ten of
our Polish students at Heidelberg decided to
take chance and 60 home. Before they left,
they vowed to get messages back to US. That
was more than year and half ago, but we
haven't heard from any of them. Our stu
dents believe they were either executed or
sent to Siberia
That experience points up dramatically the
plight of the DPS now remaining in Germany
and Austria. Meanwhile, the International
Refugee Organization, created by UN, has
made tentative arrangements with II coun-

More typical of the group perhaps are
Evald Roosaare and his wife Juta, Esto-
mans, whose romance began i'm q Ger
man labor camp. Juta had been graduate
horticulturist, Evald lawyer. Evalds first
job in this country was as messenger, at $2l
a week. Now he is working in the foreign de-
partment of Moodys Investors Service also
has part-time job with an Estonian maga-
zine. His wife earns $50 week designing
hand d-painted ties.
All of these people have lived through years
which they are trying to forget, but none has
memories more tragic than those of Irene
Hass, Jewish girl from Poland. She was II
when the war broke out, and worked in the
resistance movement. She was captured and
put in concentration camp with 5000
others from Polish ghetto
When they had been there a short time
the Germans came looking for girls who could
knit and sew for the soldiers Seeing pos
sible chance of escape, she volunteered, and
was sent with 200 other girls to labor camp
About 300 Jewish men also managed to get
out. All the rest of the 5000 were destroyed,
in one day. Irene's mother died from hunger
at Belsen; her father was shot at Lublin.
When the war was drawing to close, Irene
was still in labor camp in the path of the
advancing Americans. The Nazi commander
had orders to exterminate his prisoners, but
instead of waiting to do so. he fed.
Irene has just been graduated from Hunter
College. She hopes now to 60 to Columbia
University and study to be a bacteriologist.

tries to accept DPS for settlement. Many of
these countries, however, have limited their
arrangements: some will admit only agricul-
tural workers, some only miners, others only
domestics And all the agreements now in
sight would take care of only about 40 per
cent of those DPS who are asking for chance
to rebuild their lives.
Don't forget" says Bill, that the DPS
now left in the western zones of Germany
and Austria are above-average people The
Nazis took only the young and strong for
forced labor"
Go up to Bills apartment almost any time,
and you will see the brighter side of the pic
tue. Anywhere from three to five DPS are
always living there. On occasion Bill has had
so many guests that he himself has had to
move to hotel He keeps the icebox stocked
with food, and the DPS lin residence" do the
cleaning and cooking.
On Saturdays and Sundays, the place is

wood made by displaced persons still in Euro
pean camps.
They'll Do Anything
AMONG the lucky 60 who have, to date,
exchanged DP-camp life for chance in
America are lawyers, doctors, writer's, artists
and other professional people. To support
themselves while carrying on their studies
they take any jobs they can get - as nurse
maids, chauffeurs. handymen, mattresses, bus
boys. Some have been fortunate enough to
find work in their own line
One of the latter is Egil Hermanovsky, a
Latvian and successful architect and artist
in his own country. The Germans called his

He joined UNRRA shortly after its incep-
ton, spent six months working in DIP camps,
then went to Heidelberg as UNRRA's Direc-
tor of the School for Displaced Persons. To
the school came 800 DPS, representing II
nationalities
Bill soon became convinced that these
young people, whose strength, ingenuity and
determination to remain free had helped them
survive horrors which they still shrink from
discussing, would make valuable American
citizens. So he began to help some of them
get to America
1t proved fantastically difficult Each of
the IS students he picked had to be inter-
viewed by the is Consul in Stuttgart
Each had to be sponsored by one of the recog-
nized immigrant-aid organizations in the
United States, be cleared by the Army's
Counter-Intelligence Corps, pass physical
examination. collect his university credentials,
and finally pay another visit to the Consul
in Stuttgart.
One of Bills hardest tasks was getting per-
mission from the State Department to bring
Baby Peter home with him. The running
battle lasted months, and at one time Bill
got so desperate that he threatened, IF you
won't let me bring Peter in legally III snug
gle him in" At last the State Department
weakened. Permission was granted.
Left Stranded
MEANWHILE, the work of UNRRA was draw
ing to close, and the funds which had sup
ported the DIP students stopped. They were
left stranded. Bill himself had to return to
America. "As left my Office for the last
time" he says. with Peter under my arm,
all the DIP students were waiting outside to
say good-by. When appeared there was
dead silence. They just stood there and
looked at me, many with tears running down
their cheeks. was so choked up that I
couldn't say much. So just held up Peter
and said: This youngster is symbol that
Ill never stop trying to help you
Back at his job in New York, he rearranged
his whole life. He rented railroad fiat at
IL East 87th Street, furnished it with
secondhand furniture as a shelter for
the DPS he would bring over.
1t took money - and Bill gets little finan-
cial aid, reluctantly admits that paying pas
sage for his DPS and providing them with
home until they get on their feet takes about
half his salary.
His immediate goal is to bring over as
many as possible of the Heidelberg students
whom he vowed to help. Most of the young
men and women he has brought in have
entered under their national quotas, which
for time were still open to immigrants from
Estonia, Latvia and the Ukraine. But when
