We can do one makeshift thing or another for a few days. perhaps. or even a week or two. but we cannot wait much longer than that. The President has already stuck his neck out a mile in taking Vietnamese off of the mainland of Asia and in expending money which was not necessarily ever intended for these particular purposes. It needs to be regularized. as well as the general activities to resettle these refugees. both in our own interests. so that acknowledged and accepted national policy. with the necessary money. may not be replaced by fears and concerns which are both inappropriate and unnecessary. So I express my gratitude to Senator HATFIELD. as I did to Senator CRANSTON. for the fine work which shows that we. too. can operate as a team. that we are not all individual prima donnas. but that a line of action having been inaugurated. there are very constructive lateral supports for it such as those on which we are acting today by Senator CRANSTON and Senator HATFIELD. Finally again I thank our majority leader.
