ganized by Concerned Citi-
zens for Cambodia (CCC),
Detroit area religious and

the public to pressure the
government to expedite air-
lifts of food and medical
supplies to Kampuchea.

unresponsive to the cries for
help from the starving
people in Cambodia," said

nocent human beings • are
faced with a slow, agonizing
death for lack of food and
medical care."

Holocaust.
"Thirty-five years ago,

"The immense tragedy in
