Mr. Speaker. we do not raise our voices in protest or in condemnation of any nation or any political faction of any nation. but instead. we raise them in concert with the whimper of a little child too ill and too hungry to cry and the anguished cry of its mother and the wall of its grandmother crying out for their plight and for their beloved dead. We members of the Congressional Womens Caucus who had the opportunity of being sent on a mission by the Speaker and by this House to Cambodia and to Thailand and to other places in the Far East wish also to Join our voices in concert with all the people throughout the world who really wish to relieve the refugee situation. We know that in a very practical sense there is a network of help through the international agencies which have a pipeline of goods and supplies and of expert knowledge in sanitation. in health care. in nutrition. and in construction. We hope that you will Join your voices with ours to ask that this kind of help be given to the refugees of Lebanon.
