Citation of title.

SEC. 102. Appropriations under this title for "Salaries and expenses", "International conferences and contingencies", and "Missions to international organizations" are available for reimbursement of the General Services Administration for security guard services for protection of confidential files. S E C 103. None of the funds appropriated in this title shall be used (1) to pay the United States contribution to any international organization which engages in the direct or indirect promotion of the principle or doctrine of one world government or one world citizenship; (2) for the promotion, direct or indirect, of the principle or doctrine of one world government or one world citizenship. SEC. 104. It is the sense of the Congress that any new Panama Canal treaty or agreement must protect the vital interests of the United States in the Canal Zone and in the operation, maintenance, property and defense of the Panama Canal. SEC. 105. The Congress, taking cognizance that—(1) the Secretary of State on June 11 submitted a multi-point proposal to the Sixth General Assembly of the Organization of American States designed to restructure the membership qualifications, the policymaking organs, and the financial assessments for the members of that body, and (2) the United States Government has been regularly contributing approximately two-thirds of the annual OAS budget, and (3) the bureaucratic structure of the OAS has, according to the Secretary of State, assumed a "ponderous" and "cumbersome" nature, pre-empting some of the policymaking responsibilities of the General Assembly, and (4) the several member-states of the OAS have sought a more active role for the organization in formulating common policy positions on such hemispheric issues as recognition of the Cuban government, renegotiation of the Panama Canal Treaty, and protection of human rights in Chile, and (5) the responsive structure and financial strength of the OAS will determine the relevance of that organization for meeting the challenges of the future, therefore expresses the support for its proposal presented to the Organization of American States General Assembly on June 11 by Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger and urges the General Assembly to favorably consider and adopt the United States proposal at an early date. This title may be cited as the "Department of State Appropriation Act, 1977".
