Today we have before us the first of these measures. Hopefully. by the end of the week the next stage of our relief effort will be complete. The bill we are considering now will authorize $175 million for medical supplies. clothing. shelter. and related disaster assistance for African countries to help them take care of their own and for refugees. These moneys will be funneled to those countries which iave been particularly hard hit during L984 and 1985. With passage we will also ensure that the aid will reach those for whom it was intended. and hat we will receive a full reporting rom the President by June 30 of this rear concerning what must still be lone in fiscal year 1985.
