                  NORTH KOREA ACCUSED OF DRUG DEALING

  (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, needing cash to run their government, the 
government of North Korea has been accused of selling heroin and 
cocaine. I am not kidding you. Reports say that North Korean agents 
were arrested by international police possessing 80 pounds of cocaine 
and $100 million worth of methamphetamines that was sponsored for sale 
officially by their government.
  Now, if that is not enough to trigger your overdose, on or about the 
same time, the White House announced they are asking Congress for 
another $55 million in foreign aid for North Korea.
  Unbelievable. North Korea is selling dope, and Uncle Sam is fronting 
the buy money. Beam me up, Mr. Speaker. So help me.
  I yield back further the fact that North Korea is building missiles 
that are being aimed in the future at America.
