A plan for an overall solution of the world refugee problem was placed before the British Government toddy by a group of Conservative Party members who blame their own party for much of Britain’s “Indifferent and make shift approach to the refugee question.”
The Conservative group estimated that there were some 2,000,000 refugees in camps and other temporary quarters in Europe, the Middle East and the Far East. Its plan called for solution through two means: relaxation of immigration laws which would aim some of the refugees and political settlements which would end the change of the others.
