   CHINA ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR MEMBERSHIP IN WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, Chinese money must be an aphrodisiac 
because it seems that everybody is jumping in bed with the Reds here.
  Check it out. Even though China tortures their own citizens, China 
threatens their neighbors, and China spies on everybody, China has 
announced that they have great support for membership in the World 
Trade Organization. In fact, China says, to boot, ``Even the United 
States Trade Representative supports, number one, lower tariffs for 
China and, number two, China's membership in the World Trade 
Organization.''
  Beam me up, Mr. Speaker. The Trade Representative will not wise up 
until there is a Red Army tank shoved right up their foreign policy. I 
yield back a $70 billion projected trade deficit with China, who is 
buying intercontinental ballistic missiles and pointing them right at 
us.
