One provision in which I am interested because I introduced a bill. H. R. 3492. which would provide a grant of $150.000.000 to Israel. and the recommendation of the House Foreign Affairs Committee allocating $50.000.000 for the relief and resettlement of refugees in Israel goes part of the way to satisfy the provisions of H. R. 3492 which proposed a grant of $150.000.000. As the author of that bill. I had hoped that we could do more to assist Israel in its struggle to absorb hundreds of thousands of immigrants and to achieve economic independence. Yet I believe that the House committee action will make a substantial contribution to the solution of this problem. while at the same time dealing fairly with both the Israelis and the Arabs. I trust that the House will accept it.
