Mr. president, I sub- mit an amendment to the farm bill for printing, and ask that it lie at the Vice President's desk until the farm bill is be- fore the Senate for consideration. The amendment provides that, not- withstanding any other provisions of law, the Commodity Credit Corporation shall not make any sales of wheat at less than 110 percent of current support prices plus reasonable carrying charges; and for the unumbering of subsequent sections accordingly. It is my intention to discuss the amendment more fully at a future date, but I wish to have it printed and lie at the desk so that other Senators who are interested may consider the proposal, which I think is important to the Na- tion's agriculture and the wheat farmers of the Nation. The PRESIDING OrviCER. The amendment will be received, printed, and will lie on the desk, as requested. CHANGE OF REFERENCE Mr. GORE. Mr. President, I am ad- vised that the chairman of the Commit- tee on Armed Services, the Senator from Georgia [Mr. RUSSELL] has no objection to the re-referral of Senate bill 1391, to authorize the Secretary of the Army to convey certain lands at the old Hickory lock and dam, Cumberland River, Ten- nessee, to the Tennessee Society for Crippled Children and Adults, Inc. I ask unanimous consent that the bill be re-referred to the Public Works Com- mittee. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT?CHANGE OF CONFEREE Mr. DrRKSEN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senator from South Dakota [Mr. MUNDT] be ex- cused as a conferee on the bill (HR. 6927) to establish a Department of Housing and Urban Development, and for other purposes, and that the Senator from New York [Mr. JAvirs] be appointed In his stead.

Mr. President, I present a letter from the Secretary of the Army, transmitting a report dated June 2, 1965, from the Chief of Engineers, De- partment of the Army, together with accompanying papers and an illustra- ? tion, on a review of the report on Lytle ? and Warm Creeks, San Bernardino, Calif., requested by a resolution of the Committee on Public Works, U.S. Sen- ate. I ask unanimous consent that the report be printed as a Senate document, with an illustration, and referred to the Committee on Public Works. ' The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. ADDITIONAL COSPONSOR OF BILL Mr. BARTLETT.

The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. NOTICE CONCERNING NOMINA- TIONS BEFORE COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY Mr. EASTLAND.

George A. Bukovatz, of Montana, to be U.S. marshal, district of Montana, term of 4 years?reappointment.

MESSAGE FROM THE HOUSE A message from the House of Repre- sentatives, by Mr. Bartlett, one of its reading clerks, announced that the House had passed a bill (H.R. 10586) making supplemental appropriations for the Departments of Labor, and Health, Education, and Welfare for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1966, and for other purposes, in which it requested the con- currence of the Senate. HOUSE BILL R.L.t. hitRED The bill (H.R. 10586) making supple- mental appropriations for the Depart- ments of Labor, and Health, Education, and Welfare for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1966, and for other purposes, was read twice by its title and referred trt tha-Ciarnmittpe? nn Annrnnrintinns THE SANTO DO1V1IN ?A MUNI BEFORE THE S PO IF FOREIGN RELATIONS COM i EE Mr. SYMINGTON. Mr. President, it Is with regret that note the altercation _ -between the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and com- mittee members as to actions incident to U.S. intervention in the Dominican Re- public. I,agrec with the actions of the admin- istration in this regard, and so stated at The time of these hearings. But I most certainly do not agree with a state- ment made on the floor yesterday that "a methodical effort was made to prove that the United States was wrongly within that Republic." The document compiled by the com- mittee staff was not one analyzing the developments in Santo Domingo, or one based on an effort to pass judgment on administration policy. It was meant to be a working paper with which committee members could outline the subject matter to be dis- cussed during the hearings. Questions were asked of administra- tion witnesses about the purported facts in the articles in question. From the answers received I reached my conclu- sion that the action of the administra- tion was proper and sound under the circumstances. I do not believe that my friend the Senator from Connecticut would have criticized this development in the man- ner he did if he had been present. For example, a key witness for the admin- istration was just as critical of some of the newspapermen praised in the state- ment of the Senator from Connecticut as he was about some of the newspaper- men criticized by the Senator. The Senator from Arkansas mentioned in the RECORD that he was considering resigning as chairman of the committee. In my opinion that would be a most un- fortunate occurrence. The chairman is a man of character and integrity; and he has a profound background of long experience in the field of foreign rela- tions. I am proud to serve with him on this committee. We do not always agree, but that is characteristic of the nature of our Government. I am equally proud that he is not either a rubber stamp for the executive branch, or for any particular group on this committee. He makes a sincere ef- fort to develop the truth; and the way the world is today, the truth would seem of utmost importance. Mr. CARLSON. Mr. President, will the Senator yield? Mr. SYMINGTON. I am glad to yield to my friend from Kansas. Mr. CARLSON. I associate myself with the remarks that the distinguished Senator from Missouri has made regard- ing our distinguished and most outstand- ing chairman of the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee. I cannot think of anything that in my opinion would set back our international programs and policies more than even the suggestion or thought that our chairman might consider resigning from that great com- mittee. It has been a pleasure to be associ- ated with the Senator from Arkansas [Mr. FT:11BM=]. He is not only able, but also a great student. As a member of the committee, I cannot think of any- one more able or better qualified. He possesses qualities that make it a joy to work with him. I appreciate very much the comments that the Senator from Missouri has made.

It is my purpose to make the paper and other historical materials referred to herelnavadahlejor the purpose of study and sefirch as soon as possible and to the full- est possible extent. However, since the Presi dent. Pi, the United States is the recipient of many confidences from others, and since the inviolability of such confidence is es Sential to the functioning of the constitu tional (ace of the Presidency, it will be nee ar easy to withhold from public scrutiny cer tam papers and classes of papers for vary ing periods of time. Therefore: (a) I hereby reserve the right to restrict the use and availability of any materials to which this agreement applies, irrespective of the time when such materials may have been, or may be delivered to the United States, for such time as I, in my sole discre- tion, may from time to time specify, and such restrictions shall be adhered to and observed in all respects for as long a period of time as may be specified or until such restrictions are revoked or terminated by me or per- sons authorized to act on my behalf with respect thereto, or as otherwise provided In this agreement.

I am not surprised at his statement- I am grateful for what he said. I am glad to yield to the Majority leader. Mr. MANSFIELD. Mr. President, I Join my distinguished colleagues in the remarks they have made about the chair- ? man of the Committee on Foreign Bela.- .' tions. I. too, hone that be does not in- tend to give serious consideration?or any consideration?to the possibility of resigning as chairman of the committee which he now heads. He is the one Sen- ? ator who is present at every meeting. He must undertake onerous responsibil- ities, but he faces up to them with in- dependence, with vigor, and with knowl- edge I came to the Congress 23 years ago with BILL rineRIGHT. I have watched him in those years with admiration and respect. I have also noted that in the press on occasion he takes unmerciful beatings because he has the temerity to express his independent thoughts on is- sues of great Importance to the country. I point out that a Senator has a respon- sibility, and a Chairman of a committee has a little added responsibility. What Senator FIII.BRIOUT has done has always been in the beet Interests of the country, and what Senator PULSAIGIIT ? has done in conducting the affairs of the committee has been fair and Impartial to all concerned. I believe he is one of the great chair- men of that committee in the history of the Republic. ' Mr. SYMINGTON. I thank the dis- tinguished majority leader. In that be Is also a member of the Committee on Foreign Relations, what he says in this connection is of special significance. SUBCOMMITIME ittErrnao mango SENATE SESSION Mr. CARL/30N.

Mr. President, the administration has assembled as persua- sive a document on why we are in Viet- nam and why we are staying there as I have seen. It contains concise state- ments by President Johnson, Secretary of State Rusk. and Secretary McNamara. It also contains the letters from Pres- [dent Eisenhower and President Ken- nedy, which constitute the basis for our national promise to Vietnam to assist. Since these documents are all rela- tively brief I ask tinsualnsons consent that the monograph entitled "Why Vietnam?' be printed in full at this point hi the Rsocete. There being no objection. the mono- graph was ordered to be printed in the Raman as follows: WIRT trariveart TOSIXWOILD MT FELLOW Anzeicares? Once again to inane age-old struggle for a better life and a world' of peace, the wisdom, courage, and compassion of the American people are being put to the teat. This la the meaning of the tragic conflict in Vietnam. In meeting the present challenge. it is es- ranee] that our people seek understanding and that our leaders speak with candor. I have therefore directed that this report to the American people be *implied and widely distributed. In its pages you will find statements on Vietnam by three lead- ers of your Ooverounent--by your President, your Secretary of State, and your Secretery Of Defense These statements were prepared for differ- ent audiences, and they reflect the differing responsibilities of each speaker. The con- gressional testimony has been edited to avoid Undue repetition and to incorporate the sense of the discussions that ensued. Together, they construct a clear definition of America's role in the Vietnam conflict: the dangers and hopes that Vietnam bolds for all free men, the fullness and limits of our national oteectives in a war we did not seek, the constant effort on our part to bring this war we do not desire to a quick and honorable end. larmiore B.

NOwlia TO 511I51 MYJcmTm cestraorrus., APM 4, 1054 (Preen Dwight D. Eisenhower, "Mandate for Change, 1958--66," New Tort. 1955) Dux Wierorrow I am sure ? ? ? you are following with the deepest interest and anx- iety the daily reports of the gallant fight being put up by the Trench at Dien Bien Phu. Today, the eltuetion there does not seem hopeless. But regardless of the outcome of this par- ticular battle, I fear that the French can- not alone free the thing through, this despite the very substantial sesietance in money and materiel that we arp giving them. It is no solution simply to urge the French to In- tensify their efforts. And if they do not see it through and Indochina passes into the hands of the Communists the ultimate effect on our and your global strategic posi- tion with the consequent shift in the power ratios throughout Asia and the Pacific could be disastrous and, I know, unacceptable to you and me. ? ? ? This has led us to the hard conclusion that the situation in south- sant Asia requires us urgently to take serious and far-reaching decisions. Geneva_ is Mee than 4 weeks away. There the possibility of the Communist/1 driving a wedge between us will, given the state of mind in Prance, be inenitely greater than 20857 at Berlin. I can understated the very natural desire of the Preach to seek an end to this war which hes been bleeding them for II years. But our painstaking search for a way out of the impasee has reluctantly forged us to the conclusion that there is no negotiated solution of the Indochina problem wine& is Its essence would not be either a faos-eseing device to cover a French surrender of a tees- saving device to cover a communist retire- ment. The first alternative is too serious in its broad strategic implications for us and for you to be acceptable. ? ? ? Somehow we must contrive to bring about the *woad alteniative. The preliminary lines of our thinking were sketched out by Poster [Dulles] in his speech last Monday night when he said that under the conditions of today the imposition on southeast Asia of the political system of Communist Res- ale and its Chinese Communists ally, by what- ever means, would be a grave threat to the whole free community, and that in our view this possibility should now be met by united action and not passively accepted. ? * * I believe that the best way to put teeth in this concept and to bring greater moral and material resources to the support of the French effort is through the establishment of a new, ad hoc grouping or coalition com- posed of nations which have a vital concern In the checking of Cern/nu/ILA expansion in the area. I have in mind in addition to our two countries. Prance, the Associated States, Australia, Hew Zealand, Thailand and the Philippines. The U.S Oovernment would ex- pect to play Its full part in such a coali- tion. ? ? ? The important thing is that the coalition must be strong and it must be willing to Join the fight if necessary I do not en- visage the need of any apprecieble ground forces on your or our part ? ? ? If I may ref.'!" again to history; we failed to halt iiirohlte, Mussolini. and Hitler by not *eerie in unity and in time.
