A hearing on the status of the Fort Ontario emergency refugee shelter has been scheduled at Oswego for June 25, instead of June 11, by a sub-committee of the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learned today.
Headed by Rep. Samuel Dickstein of New York, the sub-committee to conduct the hearing includes Reps. Lesinski of Michigan, Fisher of Texas, Arnold of Missouri and Sharp of New York, and for this particular occasion will be enlarged by the addition of Reps. Rees of Kansas and either Doughton of Virginia or Miller of California.
