Mr. President. I do not feel the response to the questions I submitted to the Secretary are fully responsive. in light of press reports and other information available to the subcommittee. There is. I feel. a continuing tendency on the part of this administration to underplay the seriousness of war related civilian problems in Laos. even though the movement of refugees apparently plays a very significant role in our overall strategy. There are even indications that we have deliberately set about to remove all population from Pathet Lao areasat whatever cost. I might add. I find this and the subsequent disregard for humanitarian needs appalling for a nation such as ours.
