I want to assure him that if he were to withdraw his reservation of objection I would yield time to debate his concern on Vietnam. which I share. All I am saying to the gentleman is right now the issue before us is where does the United States stand on reaching out a helping hand to people who are dying on the open seas in Southeast Asia. Where does the United States stand on people who are languishing in refugee camps. who have already been approved for admission to the United States. The issue. I say to my friend. is are we going to turn our backs on them todaywhich is what the consequence would be of an objection by the gentleman or by anybody elseor will the United States stand true to its humanitarian tradition and reach a hand out.
