Speaker. I am disturbed by the White House decision to recommend that the Peoples Republic of China be extended mostfavorednation trading status. The President noted that Chinas emigration flow has continued even since the Tiananmen crackdown. and that China easily fills its United States immigration quota of 17.000. Let us face it. for a country of 1.1 billion people. filling this quota is not too difficult a task. Regrettably. the administration ignored restrictions in exit permit and passport application processes instituted since Tiananmen Square. Such restrictions are helping police apprehend students and scholars believed to be responsible for the socalled crimes of urging democracy and greater individual liberties. On the basis of these emigration restrictions alone. China clearly does not deserve mostfavorednation status. On May 30.
