Mr. President. yesterday the Senate approved legislation rescinding the $8 million provided in the continuing appropriations bill for the construction of schools for North African Jewish refugees in France. This legislation was initiated at the request of Senator DANIEL INOUYE. sponsor of the funding provision. I commend Senator INOUYE for his courage in admitting a mistake and for his decisiveness in acting to correct it. His handling of this matter underscores the qualities which have made him a highly respected Member of this body. The unfortunate thing about all this is that Senator INOUYE is bearing the brunt of public dissatisfaction with all of us.
