President. last week I submitted for printing an amendment to H.R. 12169. to raise the authorization in the AID supplemental by $10 million. The $10 million increase in my amendment was for a specific purpose. Its purpose was to set aside this increase to be utilized under existing authority of the foreign aid bill for contributions to international agencies. specifically the United Nations. for programs directed toward the humane problems of refugees in South Vietnam. Some time ago I visited the United Nations. meeting with a number of independent agencies there. I talked with them about the programs they had undertaken in South Vietnam.
