If a child is burned because of a flamethrower in the hands of the Vietcong or because of a phosphorous bomb of the United States. we have an obligation to do something about it. It is interesting and it is worth while to try to say that the Vietcong are responsible for 30 or 60 percent of it. But those people are in need of help and assistance. It always has been my position. and I think it is the position of the members of the Senate Subcommittee on Refugees. that we ought to be providing as high a priority in pursuing the care and consideration of civilian casualties. whether they are caused by Vietcong or American GVN activities. as we pursue in terms of fighting the war.
