The Agency for International Development deserves to be congratulated for organizing and continuing this program. Unfortunately in most areas of the world the Soviets today provide more scholarships than we do. The United States also will contribute $7.5 million to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Cyprus. We spent nearly an entire day with Director Said Halim touring the facilities which the UNHCR helps administer including an impressive hospital. a newly built school for the deaf. and several other social welfare projects in both the Greek and Turkish sides. In the midst of the current division. the UNHCR is an especially evident example of how important small gestures of goodwill are on the island.
