It Is indeed tragic that the United States must contribute to the arms race in the Middle East. However. by providing such aid to Israel. perhaps the Arab States will soon come to realize that this country intends to stand behind its commitments to Israel. Further. the present bill indicates that the important work carried on by the ExportImport Bank can be continued at full funding and. in another area. assistance can be rendered to the millions of refugees of the tragic bloodbath occurring in East Pakistan. In supporting H.R. 12067. I urge that the conferees correct this measures deficiencies and restore funds cut from important programs.
