My first amendment seeks to do this. Mr. President. the current tide of new refugees in Vietnamthe latest toll in civilian war casualtiesis just that: the "latest" and the most recent. They only serve to remind us that each day the bloodbath continues in Indochinaeach day of new warfare. from both sidesescalates the already massive human needs caused by this tragic war. As urgent as are the needs of the latest refugees and the newest war victims. so too are the cumulative needs of the millions of old refugees who have languished these many years in camps. torn from their homes and lands and source of livelihood. Many still live in urban squalor with little hope and no future. And then there are the thousands of innocent villagers who still today are moved as pawns in relocation schemes to suit the whims of government administrators.
