Are we going to fail at a time

before.

are trained professionals who I'M

We are in war that is proving
not to be a punitive expedition
but real shooting war that is
claiming the lives of our boys
daily as all the previous wars have
done.
This one young lady entering
school now will not be of help
today-no. There are always flu

be prepared, or are we always
going to be sorry we didn't pre-.

Ce|Ier Charges DIP Bill
Has Been Perverted
To Aid Reich ExpeI|ees

Chairman Celler of the House
Judiciary Committee charged yes
terday that his displaced persons
bill had been perverted to the use
of German expellees" by the
Senate Judiciary Committee.
He said the measure, as reported
to the Senate, would be of little
help to residents of DIP camps in
Europe, because most of them
would be ineligible for admission
to the United States.
The original Celler bill was in
tended to increase the number of
DIP camp residents admitted to
this country, without raising i'm
migration quotas for the nations
of their origin.
German Advantage Seen. +'
But preferences for persons of
German ethnic origin" and for
experienced farm workers, written
into the bill by the Senate group,
practically bar entry to those in
the DIP camps" Mr.. Celler
claimed.
'They will have to compete with
heavy and overwhelming ad-
vantage in the law on the side of
Germans for admission to the
United States" he continued.
"This spells out a studied attempt
to close our doors to the persons
in the DIP camps. 1t means that
the American taxpayer will have
to continue maintaining these
camps for an indefinite period.
1t means that the hopes of
dissolving the International Ref
ugee Organization, to which the
United States is so heavy a con-
tributor, on March 81, 1851, will
be dashed" ...
Mr.. Celler also objected to the
addition of "Marxist" to q def
milton of excludable persons al
ready including the word, Com
munist."
Asks for Original Form.
What is a 'Marxist' and who
Is a 'Marxist' is far from being
settled" he said, land to use so
vague a term legislatively is a
grave error. Does a 'Marxist' mean
George Bernard Shaw, Clement
Atlee, or Tito. or Molotov or any
or all of them?"
Mr.. Celler called On the Senate
to change the bill back to its orig
inal form when it comes up for
floor debate.
