(a) Encouraging private contributions

    It is the sense of the Congress that the President should take all 
possible steps to encourage across the Nation a massive outpouring of 
private contributions of money and nonperishable foods, to be collected 
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--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ So in original. Probably should be ``furtherance''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
        (1) using all available authorities, including section 402 of 
    title 10 (relating to transportation of humanitarian relief 
    supplies), should use resources of the Department of Defense 
    (including the National Guard) to transport nonfinancial private 
    contributions to Poland,\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \2\ So in original. The comma probably should be a semicolon.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
        (2) should request additional authorities as needed for the use 
    of those resources for that purpose; and
        (3) should encourage maximum participation by such recognized 
    private and voluntary organizations as the Polish-American Congress 
    in the transportation of nonfinancial private contributions to 
    Poland.
