  CHINA IS BUYING MISSILES WITH AMERICAN CASH AND THEN AIMING THEM AT 
                            AMERICAN CITIES

  (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, this China-White House business bothers 
me. China's trade surplus with Uncle Sam will exceed $70 billion this 
year and it is common knowledge that China is buying missiles with 
American cash and then aiming those missiles at American cities.
  Beam me up. I recommend that any deal with China, number one, require 
a 5-year waiting period before China can fire a missile at America; 
number two, that China cannot sell stolen U.S. technology at missile 
shows; and number three, all Chinese missiles shall have trigger locks.
  Now on a serious note, I yield back the greatest threat ever to 
America's national security: Communist China.
