The money was to have been paid over to the National Service Board for Religious Objectors. the official nonGovernment liaison agency between the Selective Service System and 47 religious denominations. for war rehabilitation work. Because the Comptroller General felt that this could not be done without enabling legislation by the Congress the fund was deposited in the United States Treasury where it remains in trust for the National Service Board for Religious Objectors. The money appropriated by this bill will be used for foreign rehabilitation and refugee relief and resettlement programs in accordance with the original agreement. In order to insure adequate controlling of the programing of the money. the bill further provides that disbursement of the money would be made upon approval of the Director of Selective Service. and that in making this approval. the Director of Selective Service will have available the counsel of the Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid. which is a Government agency in the International Cooperation Administration. I earnestly invite the attention of the membership of the House to this legislation which will complete an agreement which should not be permitted to continue unresolved.
