Should the military regulations and laws be amended to simplify the procedures for a soldier who wishes to bring his legal wife and children back to this country? Same for a serviceman who wants to take responsibility for raising his own illegitimate child? At a time when more Americans are seeking to adopt children than there are children for adoption. should the immigration laws and adoption regulations be changed to deal with this specific problem of the abandoned Vietnam children? Senator Harrison Williams Jr. of New Jersey has introduced a bill. now buried in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. to create a temporary Vietnam child care agency to help particularly those children fathered by U.S. servicemen. The South Vietnamese Government. however. places strict barriers against permitting children of G.Is to leave the country. and also objects to special aid for the halfAmerican children if it is not also available to Vietnamese children whose parents were killed in the war.
