Speech #910148672

I hope that I may have a chance to introduce. at an appropriate place in the RECORD. specific rebuttals to the suggestions which have been made by the Senator from Kansas. It is interesting that the Senator has quoted with some accuracy the Defense Department figures on the number of South Vietnamese killed by the Vietcong. Let me indicate at the outset that nowhere in the extensive and comprehensive report of the Subcommittee on Refugees. nor in the statements that I have made here. have we done anything but condemn the policy of terrorism which is the policy of the Vietcong in South Vietnam. There is absolutely no kind of question as to the work of the members of the Subcommittee on Refugees. or of myself. in condemning that activity by the Vietcong. There is a question. I believe. as to the number of civilian casualties which have been caused by United States and ARVN forces.
