Mr. Speaker. the sudden and dramatic end to the voyage of the Golden Venture. which ran aground with its cargo of illegal aliens off New York City. has brought to the Nations attention the fact that the smuggling of illegal aliens has become big business. It is estimated that last year over 100.000 Chinese were smuggled into the United States. If the trend continues. this figure will markedly increase this year. Even if these individuals are caught. they can delay and possibly escape deportation simply by asking for political asylum. As the June 9 editorial in the New York Times correctly notes. "Amedcas ad hoc asylum policies have slipped out of whack with postcoldwar realities. This Member would ask that this editorial. entitled "The Golden Venture. Plus 100.000" be entered into the RECORD.
