EUROPEAN IMMIGRANTS More than 37,000 European immigrants came to Illinois under the four-yepr federal refugee program which terminated last June 30. Illinois received a larger number of these persons than any other state, with the single exception of New York. This showing is disclosed in a report issued by the Illinois' Dtsplaced Persons Commission, which aided these immigrants to find homes and become adjusted to American life. Various public and private agencies helped the commission in the work. These immigrants are Poles, Germans, Italians, Greeks and others who were uprooted from their homes in Europe by World War II and subsequent p o l i t i c a l develops ments.
