It threatens near famine for millionsand the spread of epidemics and disease. I do not speak today to blame or condemn. or to offer any magic solution for meeting the political and humanitarian problems in East Pakistan. But as chairman of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Refugees. I do wish to express a deep personal concern over the plight of the people in East Pakistan. which seems to be just another link in a chain of warravaged populations stretching around the world in recent years. Inevitably. the situation of civilians in East Pakistan is taking second place to the political issues at stakeand to the interests of those who have much to lose. or to gain. by the outcome of the battle.
