H.R. 9669. The bill was approved by both the House and the Senate Committees on the Judiciary so far as the Molly Kwauk case is concerned. and passed both housesbut in the Senate with an amendment adding to it a separate bill for the relief of another person. Molly Kwauk is now in Hong Kong. where she faces deportation to Communist China if action on this bill is not completed. Her mother. who escaped from the Communists. is chief of anesthesia at the Veterans Hospital in Louisville. Ky.. and has been trying very hard for a long time to secure clearance for Molly to enter the United States. Molly Kwauks mother. a U.S. citizen. is her only living relative except for an 80yearold grandmother in Communist China. she has satisfied the Committees on the Judiciary that Molly will not become a public charge. The mother was formerly chief of anesthesia at Peiping Union Medical College. and associate professor at the Shanghai Medical College. prior to coming to the United States in 1948 for advanced study and becoming a citizen in 1955. Molly is living with refugees in Hong Kong. but her situation there is most insecure. There will be no one to care for her if she is returned to Communist China. Her mother. who is a doctor. pleads for the chance to care for her daughter.
