Chairman. the gentlemans amendment. of course. is across the board for this program. but just in reference to taking a microcosm problem. the Arms Control and Foreign Policy Caucus last week issued a report that indicated that by a 3to1 margin. assistance to El Salvador is now military. as contrasted with economic assistance. Speaking this morning on the Senate side of this building was a Lutheran . bishop from El Salvador. Bishop Gomaz. who has been jailed in that country by the right. who serves in refugee camps. Many people are there because of leftist insurrection. He says that increasingly in that country not only is the war not being won with this kind of assistance. but America is being perceived as a country supplying aid to curtail life. rather than to expand life.
