Needless to say. authorizing legislation for the credit sales program appears to be helplessly deadlocked in a HouseSenate conference at this time. consequently. the committee has not recommended any appropriations for this program for fiscal year 1971. However. since the House has Included funds for this item in the bill. the amount ultimately allowed to fund this program will necessarily have to be resolved when a conference is held on this bill. For title III of the bill. the committee has included a total of $1.939.239.000 to fund the Peace Corps. the administration of the Ryukyu Islands by the Army. assistance to refugees in the United States. the migration and refugee assistance program administered by our Department of State. subscriptions to the Asian Development Bank and the International Development Association. and an increase in quota of the International Monetary Fund. For all of these items. the committee has made the full budget estimate available with the exception of the Peace Corps wherein the committee recommendation of $94.500.000 Is $4.300.000 below the budget estimate and the amount authorized by the Congress. I might add that this reduction of $4.300.000 was requested by the Deputy Director of the Peace Corps.
