I do not know what the Committee on Appropriations will appropriate. It did not recommend the full amount last year. This figure is based on the best estimate we have of the amount of money needed. This is a oneshot operation. It is to help Israel get these people settled and started. As the Members know. we have been spending various amounts. this year I think they are asking for about $14 million. and I am not going to oppose it. for Arab refugees. It has been an ongoing program since 1948 in various amounts. seldom less than $15 million. I believe.
