Displaced Persons
Study Admittance | Of 100,000 a Year

U. 8. should admit 100,000 displaced! *
persons a year from Europe for the next four years. i The proposal, backed by Protes- | tant, Catholic and Jewish church groups, is contained in a bill offered by Rep. Willlam G. Stratton (R.| Ik). Hearings will open Wednesday and continue through June 186 be-| fore the judiciary subcommittee on| ~ immigration headed by Rep. Frank | Fellows (R. Me). The displaced persons would be subject to the same regulations as immigrants who come in under| quotas. They would have to pass a| health test, prove they did not hold a political philosophy advocat- | ing the overthrow of the U. 8. gov-| ernment: and that they were not|. likely to become public charges. |
