In 1984 MICKEY walked up to me on this floor and asked me if I would like to take a trip to Ethiopia with him. This was before the newsreels were showing some of the famine in that part of the world. I. along with other Members. took that trip. And what I saw. as I got out of Addis Ababa and into the refugee camps. what I saw there devastated me. If you could possibly imagine looking over fields as far as you can see covered with literally tens of thousands of human beings. men. women and children. starving to death. The saddest part of all was the children.
