Our third choice is this compromise. It is a good choice and I urge that it be the choice of the House this afternoon. I recall that one of the Members who spoke here has expressed concern for the refugees. I think this is a very burning issue. Are we going to sit in this airconditioned Chamber and not be concerned about the 180.000 to 200.000 refugees many who are living in tents? If we vote against this compromise. we may condenm them to a life of deprivation for many months ahead. How is conscience can we do that? We must be concerned about the refugees. Mr. Chairman. we must act confidently and resolutely on this matter.
