Special Fund budget since it was initiated. We are now paying a higher percentage of the U.N. Middle East refugee program than we have ever paid since it was first initiated as a blackmail measure to keep Nasser from causing trouble and waging aggression in the Middle East. For years our percentage hovered around 67 percent but it is now up to 70 percent as other nations see that we are willing to pick up all the debts that they refuse to honor. The only U.N. voluntary program to which our disproportionate contribution has shown any tendency to be reduced is the United Nations Childrens Fund and even it has now leveled off at 40 percent. a far cry from the 33 1/3percent limitation which governs our regular U.N. assessment.
