I just take this time to point outand I do so only for fear that out of emotional antiCastroism this amendment might passthat one danger is in the Middle East. This country contributes 70 percent. as has been pointed out. for UNRRA. and if it was not for this Agency. at this moment that whole area would blow up like a tinderbox explosion. If there is one thing that keeps the lid on that dangerous and sensitive situation of 7 1/2 million refugees in teeming camps. it is the work of UNRRA. and the best thing we can do. if we want to trigger off an explosion in that part of the world. which could trigger off an explosion in other parts of the world. would be to vote for this amendment right now.
