For whose benefit will all this money accrue? Will it be used by a democratic government to aid a people who are constantly shot at. harassed. and brutalized. in the majority of cases. by their own leaders? Will It be .used to alleviate the suffering of civilians .stuffed into overcrowded. filthy. and dehumanizing refugee camps? If past experience is any guide. this entire amount will go to some corrupt leaders of the Saigon regime in power because of our armed might and the war policies of President Johnson and* now President Nixon. How can our government officials in Saigon justify. in good conscience. giving these leaders machineguns and other war materiel. paid for by American taxpayers. to sell inthe open.international market? .. . 1 Vice President Ky and a number of South Vietnam generals already have unlisted bank accounts in Hong Kong and in Switzerland.
