The amendment does not contain any specific restrictions on the operations of the program. but it emphasizes our determination to support the growth of democratic institutions around the world. Such an emphasis is desirable. because it is not foreordained that aid to a country will result automatically in political progress toward the democratization of its institutions. H.R. 15750 also includes a provision that would deny assistance from U.S. contributions to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency to Palestinian refugees engaged in the socalled Palestine Liberation Army. It is appropriate and necessary for us to emphasize that aid designed for refugees must not be diverted. especially for uses which would destroy peace in the Middle East. On the other hand. I regret the provisidn in H.R. 15750 that no U.S. contribution to an international organization should be used for a project in Castros Cuba.
