mr. smith long enough to understand that one of the arguments against it is the trafficking that somehow they went along but the promises. anti-trafficking experts frequently are recognized two important facts good one is that the purposes of trafficking can include forced marriage. furthermore, the anti-trafficking recognizes recruitment into trafficking takes the form of seduction. in netherlands, they refer to it as those loverboy phenomenon. this faÇade of romance to microsoft's intent is consistent with patterns documented in human trafficking cases. although some women do in fact -- may in fact consent to romance in no way do they consent to abuse, violence and bought a religious identity. therefore produce president. for fraud or coercion is present. you have a case of trafficking. trafficking does not have to be commercial. three, we haven't identified specific patterns in these instances, mr. chairman, including the fact that coptic grocer befriends and these patterns would indicate th

mr. smith: four million people displaced and countless families disamated. the comprehensive peace agreement of 2005 ended the war and put south sudan on the path to nationhood. tomorrow in the people of south sudan emerge as the newest nation on earth. tomorrow when that dream is realized, americans will join the people of south sudan in celebrating this extraordinary hope-filled event. yet, recently at least 100,000 sudanese have been displaced from one area and tens of thousands of southerners living in another state have been recently forced from their homes, some of them murdered. so there are serious remaining challenges. nevertheless, we hope and we pray that the people of south sudan will finally live in peace, respect for their basic human rights and freedom. yield back the balance. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. the gentleman from colorado. >> i ask permission to address the house for one minute and to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, so ordered. mr. polis: mr. speaker, i rise tod

i often reflect on motion pictures and learn from them and when i came up here it was mr. smith goes to washington. but currently i've been thinking about blazing saddles. remember blazing saddles, mel brooks and richard prior, they did a movie. they had a city called rock ridge, all-white city of lawless problems and the government appointed a handsome, sharp, young black man to be the sheriff. first black schiff ever in rock ridge. he went there answered wanted the towns folk to help him prepare to beat off the thugs and have a better city. they didn't want to join him. he said, you do it for randolph scott. and they would have done it for randolph scott and realizing that, they helped the sheriff. the republicans, well, there'd do it for george bush and they did it for george bush a lot. thank you, mr. speaker. life imitates art. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from new york rise? >> to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman from new york is recognized for one m

. >> mr. smith, you are recognized. >> you had earlier started to touch on private pension reform toward the end of your remarks. could you elaborate? >> in great britain a few years ago cannot they undertook -- a few years ago, they undertook a social security reform. in typical british way, they had a white paper study on what they should do and concluded that it would be useful to try to increase private savings at the same time that they did social security reform. it actually increased benefits in the public system. but even there, they decided that it was not enough. it is probably because the index did at a slower rate. they decided that in order to help a broad swath of people we needed to build up private pension savings. if you look at the private pension system, it covers fairly poorly most of the population. an estimate i did a few years ago -- i have not quite of dated, but basically of 70% of those who retire, the lifetime expenditure is close to $1 million. that is in excess of their

smith and mr. newton, in what way do you grapple with your own perm world view and judgments when you write history, when did you suspend it, and what times do you decide upon a theme that sort of shapes how you judge the subject of your work? >> well, when i say i suspended judgment, i really ought to say that i was held judgment -- withheld judgment. when you work in a field of this kind, in the beginning you have to retain a certain openness and a nonquarrelsomeness. if you have ideas where the book is to go and what it means, you'll miss a lot. you have to do that in a human way. hold back. when something comes up that makes you uncomfortable, listen to that, you know? pursue that, stick with that, so i was forming judgments all the time, but i did not the text to be a text of judgment. i wanted it to be a text of narrative so the events are there, the people say things at a certain time, so you see certain things. something's lying on the ground bleeding and people fight over it whether or not

smith. >> thank you, mr. speaker. the "new york times" last september said that the reporter he had spoken to was one of two people who said coulson was present during discussions about phone hacking. did the prime minister discuss the allegation of andy coulson, and if not, why not? >> as i said i had a number of conversations all the time during his employment and in the end the swirl allegations is why he left but what we have now is not only a criminal investigation where people are being interviewed by the police and the police can go without fear or favor but also a public inquiry. that none of these things happened properly under the last government they're happening now and no one will be immune from it. >> may i just remind members that as a basic courtesy trying to catch my eye should not be fiddling with their electronic devices. i thought it was a major of courtesy but i guess not. >> mr. speaker, can i ask the prime minister whether he will ensure that the activities of damien mcbride, the king of smears
