Mr. President. this amendment consists of a resolution urging the President: first. to impress upon the Austrian Government the great concern of the American people that capitulation to terrorists encourages further attempts at blackmail. second to call upon the Austrian Government to reverse its decision and again permit group travel by Soviet Union emigrants through Austria on their way to freedom and new lives. and third. to urge all governments to take whatever actions are necessary to permit and facilitate the travel of refugees. An almost identical resolution was to be introduced by my colleague from Minnesota . Instead of introducing similar ones. we decided to join on this one resolution which has been cosponsored by Senators RIBICOFF.
