Mr. Chairman. I thank the gentleman for yielding. I want to commend the gentleman in the well for offering this amendment. This is one of the critical issues that we should all be considering very carefully. because if Communist governments do take over in Central America. there undoubtedly will be a great flood of refugees. There is absolutely no question about it. When we consider that we have over 640.000 Indochinese in the United States who were brought across the Pacific Ocean. many of whom had already gone across oceans themselves to get to their original. safe havens. I think there is no doubt at all that we would have the numbers that the gentleman is talking about when you consider that they would be. for the most part. foot people.
