A resolution asking Congress for the adoption of a new DP immigration law or an amended form of the present act was adopted here last night at the 20th annual convention of the HIAS Council of Organizations.
Another of the eight resolutions adopted unanimously denied charges of dual allegiance which have been “carelessly levelled at some Jews in this country.” Among the featured speakers at the parley were Edward J. Shaughnessy, director of the New York District of the Immigration and Naturalization Service; Samuel Telsey, president of HIAS, and Vincent Impellitteri, president of the New York City Council and Acting Mayor.
