Spain May Get U.
No Entry In North
WASHINGTON, May 13 m
Senator Vaniienberj? of Michi
gan, Republican leader in foreign
affairs, said yesterday: "I am not
in favor of Spain's entry into the
North Atlantic Pact."
This unqualified stand followed
strong anti-Franco statements by
Secretary of State Acheson re
marks which President Truman
endorsed at a news conference.
Together, they apparently
slammed the door tight on any
possibility of Spain's entering the
Atlantic Alliance.
But there remained a differ
ence over sending an ambassa
dor to Spain.
Both Vandenberg and Senator
Connally (D.-Tex.), chairman of
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, have said tbey favor
having an ambassador to Madrid.
Acheson's position backed up
S. Ambassador But
Atlantic Pact
by President Truman Is that
whether or not this country has
an ambassador there is unimpor
tant In itself. But the withhold
ing of an ambassador, Acheson
said, has become 1 lportant as a
symbol of the disapproval other
nations feel for Spanish "Fas
cism." Vandenberg gave his views on
Spain during hearings on Senate
ratification of the Pact.
At present, the Foreign Rela
tions Committee is giving most
of the hearing time to criticism
of the Pact. But there were grow
ing indications that neither their
arguments nor the lifting of the
Berlin blockade would sway the
Senate from prospective over
whelming approval.
Senator Taft (R.-Ohio) told re
porters he sees "no great oppo
sition" to ratification.
Cash Bonus For California Vets Gets One OK
BirBAMPKTfl Calif.. Mav 13
UP Approval by a legisla
tive committee has given life to
a proposed state cash bonus for
California veterans of World
WAR II.
The plan, propos-ng paymems
.,n in CVtf faroc a stern test In
the Legislature. It will have to
get a two-iniras vuie in uum
houses, and if it goes through, it
still would require approval of
the voters.
But proponents were elated in
ii'inniner AnHnrwinflnt of the As
sembly Committee on constitu
tional amendments, it was me
first time a world war II bonus
bill has managed to get out of
committee.
Assemblyman William H.
Rosenthal, Los Angeles, reported
an estimate that the program
would cost $308,750,000. His bill
calls for a bond issue of $310,000,
000 to finance it. This is what it
would give the ex-servicemen:
$10 for each month of domes
tic duty, up to $250.
$15 for each month overseas,
up to $500.
The seriously disabled would
be entitled to $500 a year.

Federal Control Of Timber Cutting
Asked By Brannan, Agricultural Head
WASHINGTON, May 13 UP)
Secretary of Agriculture Bran
nan called Thursday for govern
ment control of timber cutting
to prevent further loss of the
nation's forests.
The government now regula'es
cutting on public but not on pri
vate forest land.
Brannan spoke to the National
Emergency Conference on Re
sources. He said that public regu
lation of cutting, as well as other
forestry measures, cannot be de
layed much longer "if we are to
avoid a permanent shortage of
timber."
Eaiie H. Olapp, former asso
ciate chief of the Forest Service,
advocated legislation to provide
federal regulation of forest con
servation practices. He said "it
is almost certain to be better
than state regulation."
Ellery Foster, former Minne
sota state forester and now re
search director for the CIO In
ternational Woodworkers Union,
proposed "some sort of restric
tion or covenant that might be
attached to the title of a forest
property, requiring the forest to
be handled under high standards
of selective cutting."
Foster charged that "some of
the most destructive logging in
the world is being done right to
day in the holdings of Weyer
haeuser, Crown-Zellerbach, Long
Bell and the U. S. Government
in the Pacific Northwest."
