Mr. President. as chairman of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Refugees. I have regularly reported to the Senate the tragic statistics of human suffering caused by the endless war in Indochina. Every day the news media reminds us of the bloodbath caused by this waxas the bombing escalates. as the shelling goes on. as the violence spreads. from both sides. The latest bloody example is the report from Binh Dinh Province in South Vietnam. where the executions of several hundred South Vietnamese officials at the hands of the Vietcong last month have been substantiated. But as the New York Times observes in reporting the Binh Dinh slaughter. talk of a future "bloodbath" from such episodes. both obscures the very real bloodbath that is going on today. every day. in South Vietnam and all of Indochina. as well as what steps are necessary to avoid further bloodshed.
