ST A T.

(b) Within thirty days following the approval of any change in the Mutual Security program for the fiscal year 1960, which will result in furnishing assistance of a kind, for a purpose, in an area, or in an amount, different from that described in the report transmitted under subsection (a), and which involves $1,000,000 or more, or 5 per centum of the amount appropriated under any paragraph of this title, whichever is the lesser, the President shall transmit to the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate and the Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives a full and complete report of such change and the reasons therefor. (c) This section shall not apply to programs authorized by section 451 of the Mutual Security Act of 1954, as amended. (d) None of the funds herein appropriated shall be used to carry out any provision of chapter II, III, or IV of the Mutual Security Act of 1954, as amended, in any country, or with respect to any project or activity, after the expiration of the thirty-five day period which begins on the date the General Accounting Office or any committee of the Congress, or any duly authorized subcommittee thereof, charged with considering legislation or appropriations for, or expenditures of, the International Cooperation Administration, has delivered to the office of the Director of the International Cooperation Administration a written request that it be furnished any document, paper, communication, audit, review, finding, recommendation, report, or other material relating to the administration of such provision by the International Cooperation Administration in such country or with respect to such project or activity, unless and until there has been furnished to the General Accounting Office, or to such committee or subcommittee, as the case may be, (1) the document, paper, communication, audit, review, finding, recommendation, report, or other material so requested, or (2) a certification by the President that he has forbidden its being furnished pursuant to such request, and his reason for so doing. SEC. 112. The Congress hereby reiterates its opposition to the seating in the United Nations of the Communist China regime as the representative of China, and it is hereby declared to be the continuing sense of the Congress that the Communist regime in China has not demonstrated its willingness to fulfill the obligations contained in the Charter of the United Nations and should not be recognized to represent China in the United Nations. I n the event of the seating of representatives of the Chinese Communist regime in the Security Council or General Assembly of the United Nations, the President is requested to inform the Congress insofar as is compatible with the requirements of national security, of the implications of this action upon the foreign policy of the United States and our foreign relationships, including that created by membership in the United Nations, together with any recommendations which he may have with respect to the matter. SEC. 113. I t is the sense of Congress that any attempt by foreign nations to create distinctions because of their race or religion among American citizens in the ^rantin^ of personal or commercial access or any other rights otherwise available to United States citizens generally is repugnant to our principles; and in all negotiations between the United States and any foreign state arising as a result of funds appropriated under this Act, these principles shall be applied as the President may determine.
