Displaced persons already admitted to the United States are well on their way to becoming full-fledged Americans, and the selection and screening system worked out abroad by U.S. government agencies and representatives of the three faiths virtually assures that only those DP’s who would be acceptable American citizens are being admitted to the U.S.
This was the conclusion drawn by representatives of Jewish, Catholic and Protestant organizations which to date have sponsored 87 percent of the some 110,000 displaced persons of Europe who have entered under the U.S. Displaced Persons Act, as they met today to discuss their resettlement programs, the overseas aspects as well as the effect on the U.S. Representing Jewish organizations at the parley were: Rabbi Bernard J. Bamberger, president of the Synagogue Council of America; William Rosenwald, honorary president of the United Service for New Americans; and Arthur Greenleigh, associate director of U.S.N.A.
