"$291,000,000 for the fiscal year 1974, and $530,000,-
000 for the fiscal year 1975"; and
GO by adding at the end thereof the following:
"(b) The Congress finds that, due to rising world food,
fertilizer, and petroleum costs, human suffering and depriva-
tion are growing in the poorest and most slowly develop-
ing countries. The greatest potential for significantly expand-
ing world food production at relatively low cost lies in
increasing the productivity of small farmers who constitute
a majority of the nearly one billion people living in those
countries. Increasing the emphasis on rural development and
expanded food production in the poorest nations of the devel-
oping world is a matter of social justice as well as an im-
14 portant factor in slowing the rate of inflation in the industrial-
15 countries. In the allocation of funds under this section,
16 special attention should be given to increasing agricultural
17 production in the countries with per capita incomes under
18 $300 a year and which are the most severely affected by
19 sharp increases in worldwide commodity prices.
20 "(c) Of the total amount obligated under this Act
21 during any fiscal year after fiscal year 1975 to procure
22 fertilizers for, and to provide such fertilizers to, foreign coun-
23 tries, not more than one-third of such amount may be obli-
24 gated with respect to South Vietnam."

4 SEC. 27. (a) The Congress finds that the cease-fire pro-
5 vided for in the Paris Agreement on Ending the War and
6 Restoring Peace in Vietnam has not been observed by any of
7 the Vietnamese parties to the conflict. Military operations of
8 an offensive and defensive nature continue throughout South

10 forces and the Lon Nol government has intensified, resulting
11 in widespread human suffering and the virtual destruction of
12 the Cambodian economy.

15 in the interest of the parties directly engaged in the conflicts,

8 available means to establish contact with the Khmer Gov-

9 PRINCIPLES GOVERNING ECONOMIC AID TO INDOCHINA
10 SEC. 28. (a) Congress finds that, after expending over
11 a billion dollars in funds for economic purposes in Indochina
12 last year, and vast amounts in previous years, little in lasting
13 economic benefit remains. A large proportion of the funds
14 expended have been used for consumable items related to the
15 war effort. Very little of our money has found its way into
16 capital investments of a lasting productive benefit to the
17 people. Congress calls upon the President and Secretary of
18 State to take immediately the following actions designed to
19 maximize the benefit of United States economic assistance:
20 ( 1 ) to organize a consortium to include multilateral
21 financial institutions to help plan for Indochina recon-
22 struction and development; to coordinate multilateral
23 and bilateral contributions to the area's economic rem-,

institutions, a comprehensive plan for Indochina recon-
struction and economic development;
7 (3) to develop country-by-country reconstruction
8 and development plans, including detailed plans for the
9 development of individual economic sectors, that can be
H) used to identify and coordinate specific economic devel-
11 opment projects and programs and to direct United
12 States resources into areas of maximum benefits;
13 (4) to shift the emphasis of TTnited States aid pro-
14 grams from consumption-oriented expenditures to eco-
15 nomic development;
16 (5) to identify possible structural economic reforms
17 in areas such as taxation, exchange rates, savings mech.-
18 anisms, internal pricing, income distribution, land ten-
19 are, 'budgetary allocations and corruption, which should
20 be undertaken if Indochinese economic development is to
21 progress;
22 (6) to include in Indochina economic planning and

4 AND GUINEA-BISSATJ
5 SEC. 42. (a) (1) Congress finds that the Government of
6 Portugal's recognition of the right to independence of the
7 African 'territories of Angola,. Mozambique, and Guinea-Bis-
8 sau marks a significant advance toward the goal of self-de-
9 termination for all the peoples of Africa, without which peace
10 on the continent is not secure.
11 (2) Congress finds that progress toward independence
12 for the Portuguese Government and African leaders on the
13 timing and nature of progress toward independence are being
14 conducted with the aim of bringing permanent peace and
15 stability to these countries and of guaranteeing the human
16 rights of all their citizens.
17 (3) Congress finds that progress toward independence
18 for the Portuguese African territories will have a significant
19 impact on the international organizations and the community
20 of nations.
21 (4) Congress commends the Portuguese Government's
22 initiatives on these fronts as evidence of a reaffirmation of
23 that Government's support for her obligations under both the
24 United Nations Charter and the North Atlantic Treaty
25 Organization.

1 (b) Therefore, Congress calls upon the President and
2 the Secretary of State to take the following actions designed
3 to make clear United States support for a peaceful and
4 orderly transition to independence in the Portuguese African
5 territories:
6 (1) An official statement should be issued of United
7 States support for the independence of Angola, Mozam-
8 bique, and Guinea-Bissau, and of our desire to have
9 good relations with the future governments of the
10 countries.
11 (2) It should be made clear to the Government of
12 Portugal that we view the efforts toward a peaceful and
13 just settlement of the conflict in the African territories
>
14 as consistent with Portugal's obligations under the North
15 Atlantic Treaty Organization partnership.
16 (3) The United States should encourage United
17 Nations support for a peaceful transition to independence,
18 negotiated settlement of all differences, and the protec-
19 tion of human rights of all citizens of the three territories.
20 (4) The United States should open a dialog with
21 potential leaders of Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea-
22 Bissau and assure them of our commitment to their
23 genuine political and economic independence.
24 (5) The economic development needs of the three
25 territories will be immense when independence is

1 achieved. Therefore, it is urged that the United States
2 Agency for International Development devote immedi-
3 ate attention to assessing the economic situation in
4 Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea-Bissau and be ready
5 to cooperate with the future governments in providing
6 the kind of assistance that will help make their inde-
7 pendence viable. In addition, the United States Govern-
8 ment should take the initiative among other donors,
9 both bilateral and multilateral, in seeking significant
10, contribution of development assistance for the three
11 territories.
12 (6) In light of the need of Angola, Mozambique,
13 and Guinea-Bissau for skilled and educated manpower,
14 a priority consideration should be given to expanding
15 immediately current 'United States programs of educa-
16 tional assistance to the territories as a timely and sub-
17 stantive contribution to their independence.
18 (c) Reports should be submitted to the Congress on
19 the implementation of the proposals set forth in subsection
20 (b) and Congress should be kept fully informed on develop-
21 ments in United States policy toward the independence of
22 the Portuguese African territories.
23 (d) Since it is in the national interest of the United
24 States to maintain and strengthen close relations with the
25 independent nations of Africa, the Congress believes the
26 positive initiatives should be undertaken without delay.

1 CONVENTIONAL ARMS TRADE
2 SEC. 43. (a) It is the sense of the Congress that the
3 recent growth in international transfers of conventional arms
4 to developing nations?,
5 (1) is a cause for grave concern for the United
6 States and other nations in that in particular areas of the
7 world it increases the danger of potential violence among
8 nations, and diverts scarce world resources from more
9 peaceful uses; and
10 (2) could be controlled progressively through ne-
il and agreements among supplier and recipient
12 nations.
13 (b) Therefore, the President is urged to propose to the
14 Geneva Conference of the Committee on Disarmament that
15 it consider as a high priority agenda item discussions among
16 participating nations of that Conference for the purposes of-
17 (1) agreeing ?to workable limitations on conven-
18 timid arms transfers; and
19 (2) establishing a mechanism through which such
20 limitations could be effectively monitored.
21 (c) The President shall transmit to the Congress not
22 later than six months after the enactment of this Act a report
23 setting forth the steps he has taken to carry out this section.
24 CARIBBEAN DEVELOPMENT BANK

the 'Commonwealth of Puerto Rico has the authority to con-
2 elude an agreement of accession with such bank and to assume
3 rights and obligation's pursuant to such agreement. However,
4 such agreement shall be subject to the prior approval of the
5 President.
6 (b) The instrument transmitted by the President to the
7 Caribbean Development Bank under subsection (a) shall
8 state that the United States shall not assume any financial
9 or other responsibility for the performance of any 'obligation
10 incurred by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico pursuant to
11 such agreement of accession or pursuant to any 'other aspect
12 of its membership or participation in such bank.
13 (6) Such agreement of accession shall provide that the
14 Commonwealth of Puerto Rico may not receive from the
15 Caribbean Development Bank any funds provided to the
16 bank by the United States.

7 INTEGRATION OF WOMEN
8 SEC. 48. Chapter 3 of part III of the Foreign Assistance

1 POLICY WITH RESPECT TO COUNTRIES MOST SERIOUSLY
2 AFFECTED BY FOOD SHORTAGES
3 So. 49. (a) The Congress finds that tight food avail-
4 abilities throughout the world threatens the citizens of many
5 countries with serious hunger and malnutrition. While in
6 the past foreign policy considerations have represented a sig-
7 nificant factor in the allocation of available food and fertilizer
8 assistance, the current food emergency requires an immedi-
9 ate reordering of priorities under which such assistance is
10 distributed worldwide. The United Nations has designated
11 thirty-two countries as "Most Seriously Affected" by the cur-
12 rent economic crisis. These are countries without the internal
13 food production capability nor the foreign exchange avail-
14 ability to secure food to meet their immediate food require-
15 ments. The Congress calls upon the President and Secretary
16 of State to take immediately the following actions designed
17 to mobilize all appropriate resources to meet the food erner-
18
19 (1) Immediately review and make appropriate ad-
20 justments in the level of programing of our food and
21 fertilizer assistance programs to make the maximum
22 feasible volume of food and fertilizer available to those
23 countries most seriously affected by current food
24 shortages.

donors of food, fertilizer, or the means of financing these
commodities to immediately increase their participation
in efforts to address the emergency food needs of the
developing world.
(3) Make available to these most seriously affected
countries the maximum feasible volume of food com-
modities, within appropriate regard to the current do-
mestic price and supply situations.
(4) Maintain regular and full consultation with the
appropriate committees of the Congress and report to
the Congress and the Nation on steps which are being
taken to meet this food emergency. In accordance with
this provision, the President shall report to the Congress
on the following: (A) a global assessment by country
of food needs for fiscal year 1975, specifying expected
food grain deficits by country and current arrangements
for meeting such deficits; (B) currently planned pro-
graming of commodities under Public Law 480 by
country and within such country, by volume and com-
modity and; (C) steps which are being taken to en-
courage other countries to increase their participation in
food assistance or the financing of food assistance. Such
report should reach the Congress within thirty days of
enactment of this Act and should be supplemented
quarterly for the remainder of fiscal year 1975.

(5) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
no funds authorized to be appropriated by this or any
3 other law may be obligated in any amount in excess of
4 $350,000,000 during the fiscal year ending June 30,
1975, for the purpose of providing concessional food aid

14 purposes.
