Some 500.000 Arabs were driven from their homes and their usual places of employment. The initial recommendation to have the nations of the world assist in taking care of these Arabs who have lost their possessions and lost their homes came from Mr. Bunche. who was then the mediator trying to establish a state of peace in the Middle East. and taking care of this very large group of refugees is an extremely important element in trying to secure peace in an area of the world which is of the utmost strategic importance to the United States. It is for that reason. sir. that I favor both the resolution before us and the passage of the joint resolution. There is. however. one comment that I would like to make in regard to this type of legislation.
