I know you could not. Do you know the reason I brought this up? Because I have said on this floor so many times with reference to this refugee program we are talking about that the United States pays 70 percent of the cost. the United Kingdom 18 percent of the cost and the rest of the nations 12 percent of the cost. They use our money to buy surplus agricultural commodities from other countries which do not have as much surplus as we do. That is what I am trying to get. If we are going to pay 70 percent of the cost and permit our money to be used for buying surpluses from other countries I say let us pay 100 percent of the cost and send our own commodities over there and get credit for the whole thing instead of being a part of a socalled international organization that we are supporting and getting no credit for.
