For despite the administrations greater verbal emphasis on humanitarian concerns and assistancea fact. that in itself. stands in sharp contrast to previous justifications of our aid to Indochinathe administrations budget presentation to Congress does not fully carry out this stated humanitarian commitment. Too many of the old pacification. warrelated aid programs remain in the program. even as the labels changed. And those projects most directly related to humanitarian relief of refugees and civilan war victims have been cut far more than comparable cuts in the commercial import program and other projects. Hopefully. Senate action today will support the Appropriations Committees effort to turn around our aid priorities in Indochinafrom fueling war and involving ourselves further in the remaining political conflicts in the area. to truly helping heal the wounds of war.
