I wish to congratulate the distinguished gentleman from South Carolina for the great speech which the gentleman has made. Mr. Speaker. we are confronted each day with grim news from Vietnam. There was the treacherous. trucebreaking Tet offensive. Our marines are under siege at Khesanh. We hear reports of widespread corruption in the Vietnamese Government. There is the tragic plight of many of the refugees. And there are daily reports of the loss of livesAmerican and Vietnamese. military and civilian. To the most patriotic and conscientious citizen all of this frequently adds up to the question: Cannot we somehow stop all of this and turn our resources to the pressing needs we face here at home?
