Many of the Chinese students in this country have been outspoken in their condemnation of the repressive force used by the Chinese Government. If they are forced to return to China they will face certain repression. or even death. Many fear to apply for the deferred departure program because even this act identifies them as subversives in the eyes of the Chinese Embassy here. Since Congress adjourned. the President has taken administrative action to implement the principles of the Chinese visa bill which passed both the House and Senate. I believe. however. that we need to pass a statute. The Presidents executive decree is not permanent enough.
