Mr. President. A particularly appalling story I heard came from a pair of refugee Buddhist Monks 0 0 * "In the autumn of 1987." they told me. "a Chinese birth control team set up their tent next to our monastery. * 0 *" The villagers were informed that all women had to report to the tent for abortions and sterilizations or there would be grave consequences. 0 * * During the two weeks the birthcontrol tent stood in the village. the Monks claimed that all pregnant women had abortions followed by sterilization. and every woman of childbearing age was sterilized. We saw many girls crying. heard their screams as they waited for their turn to go into the tent. and saw the growing pile of fetuses build outside the tent. which smelled horrible. Mr.
