President. I want to raise some questions with the distinguished Senator about a part of the bill which repeatedly has come to my attention while serving as a U.S. delegate to the United Nations this year. that is. the provision contained under supporting assistance of roughly $13.3 million for the United Nations Relief and Works AgencyUNRWAwhich must be considered as coupled with the rest of the $8.900.000 in commodity assistance. making a total of $22.200.000 with respect to the operation of this agency. UNRWA deals with Palestine refugees wherever they may bemainly on the west bank of the Jordan. under the military control of Israelalso in Jordan. Lebanon. Syria. and the Gaza Strip. As Senators will note. there is in the bill a specific provision for $1 million additional for the education of these refugees. I have looked into the situation carefully at the United Nations. and have also talked with the Director of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. It will be recalled that there has been acute dissatisfaction in the Senate. and in the other body. with the operation of these camps--alleged Palestine Arab refugee campswhich were the central source of one side of the recent bloody civil war in Jordan. CXvI2466Part 29 The camps. have been considered primary centers for the training of guerxillas and commandos. and the headquarters of the Al Fatahan Arab guerrilla organization. Even further. it is known that one camp was used as a place of -concealment for the hostages from the hijacked aircrafts.
