Chairman. these are considerations to which the Congress. as well as the Administration should address themselves. Mr. President. even as the subcommittee heard this testimony from the study mission. the New York Times of that morning carried a story underlining how the refugees are still pawns of war. In a dispatch from Saigon. correspondent Joseph B. Treaster. reported how the government of President Thieu is forcibly moving thousands of refugees in -the delta for political purposes. I believe that this latest report confirms the principal conclusions of the Refugee Subcommittee Study Mission and underscores the need for the Congress to review this report in the course of considering the foreign assistance authorization for fiscal year 1974. Mr. President. I ask unanimous consent that the full text of the testimony of Mr. Wells Klein. a member of the Refugee Subcommittee Study Mission to Indochina. be printed in the RECORD. as well as the New York Times dispatch from Saigon.
