by civic, religious, school, and youth organizations, for assistance to
Poland and to refugees from Romania who are in Hungary.
(b) Transportation to Poland of private contributions
In further \1\ of subsection (a) of this section, the President--

(including the National Guard) to transport nonfinancial private
contributions to Poland,\2\

(2) should request additional authorities as needed for the use
of those resources for that purpose; and

private and voluntary organizations as the Polish-American Congress
in the transportation of nonfinancial private contributions to
Poland.
