Travel "Passport Boosts Morale Of Refugees, DP.'s GENEVA (U.R) A total of 28 countries now recognize a special international document ; which ll the nearest thing to a passport for thousands of refugees and. displaced dis-placed persons. ' o Officials of the International Refugee Organization describe the travel document as a boost not only to the morale of men without a country, but as an Important factor in encouraging other countries coun-tries to accept them. "Every human being must havs a body, a soul, and a passport," IRO officials are fond of saying. "Every human being must havs the Nansen passport, which wai issued after World War I for special spe-cial categories of refugees such at White Russians and Armenians. There are still some 300,000 of these refugees left in Europe and Asia. They have the right to exchange ex-change their Nansen passport for one of the new documents. If they so desire. IRO officials say the new document docu-ment is more effective than tha Nansen passport because it guarantees guar-antees refugees the right to return re-turn to the country where they were residing when it was issued to them. Thus a displaced person , who wanted to go to Argentina from Belgium would be able to return to the latter country if ha wished. The Argentine government govern-ment could also deport him if ha proved undesirable. This right makes nations more willing to accept refugees as immigrants. It also facilitates their obtaining a visiter's pass. Looks Like Real PMsport The document has been made to look as much like a real passport as possible. Although it is of littla use without a visa, it gives refugees refu-gees a sense of "belonging," ac cording to the IRO. The United States does not recognize the "passport" on grounds it is not needed under American immigration immigra-tion procedure. For this reason it has never been applied to tha British, American and French occupation oc-cupation zones of Germany, although al-though the IRO believes that it would be of great practical use there. Countries which recognize the document are Belgium. Chile, China, the Dominican Republic, France, Greece, India, Italy, Luxembourg, Lux-embourg, the Netherlands, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Venezuela, Guatemala, Gua-temala, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway and Turkey. Turkey recognizes it for transit purposes only. The "passport" was elaborated by the Intergovernmental Committee Com-mittee on Refugees. The 1948-U.
