LET US GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANSFER OF TECHNOLOGY TO THE PEOPLE'S 
                           REPUBLIC OF CHINA

  (Mr. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, in the wake of shocking revelations of 
Chinese espionage, and the unlawful and unauthorized transfer of 
nuclear technology from our Nation to the People's Republic of China 
and the curious coincidence that the Clinton-Gore campaign took Chinese 
money in the 1996 presidential campaign, let me propose four immediate 
steps that this House should take.
  Number 1, Mr. Speaker, let me call on the President. If he wants to 
get to the bottom of this scandal, as his spinners suggest, this 
President should release forthwith the report of this House's select 
committee headed by the gentleman from California (Mr. Cox) into the 
entire episode.
  Number 2, I should point out, Mr. Speaker, 60 colleagues have joined 
me in signing a letter to the chairman of our Permanent Select 
Committee on Intelligence, the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Goss), 
urging him to conduct his own hearings since the Cox committee will 
soon lapse.
  Number 3, I would call on this Congress to close our national 
laboratories to these so-called cultural exchanges because what they 
are are pilfering--our technology.
  And Number 4, Mr. Speaker, Sandy Berger must go.
