I thank. the Senator. Mr. President. as I followed the reasoning of the able Senator from New Jersey. it is that $73.500.000 was appropriated. that that sum should be spent. regardless of whether or not other countries contribute to what is known as the International Refugee Organization. If the thought and reasoning of my able friend from New Jersey were carried out. it would simply mean that. had the United States alone signed the international agreement. it would have had to contribute 100 percent of the PCIRO expenses. when the constitution itself expressly says that 39 percent Is the limit to be paid by this country for administrative expenses. and 45 percent for operational expenses. I merely wish to make that point.
