Mr. Chairman. after a great deal of thought and considerable study I have come to the conclusion that this bill should be supported. After hearing what I heard in the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. which gets the backwash from this appeal. and when we have heard both sides as to what may and may not happen. I amn only sorry that the parliamentary situation is such that we are not able at this time to add another $2.000.000 to this bill for the relief of the people of all that is left of Armenia and of all that is left of Assyria. In 1919 and again in 1920. in a former Congress. bills for the relief of starving peoples were brought in.
