That is why I have been so terribly shocked at the allegations that some unscrupulous demons have exploited these children for personal gain. No punishment would be too severe for such international baby racketeers. If a national ring is involved. as was charged by witnesses before the Immigration Subcommittee. a new Federal criminal law may be necessary to wipe out its traces. Activities so repugnant to every decent instinct cannot be permitted to corrupt this humanitarian undertaking. It is because of such allegations and other abuses which have developed. almost wholly in connection with oversea proxy adoptions. that the committee recommended only a stopgap 1year extension of the present law.
