ticism was heavier in volume
than the approval Mr. Truman's
plan got from administration sup
porters when he formally submit
ted it yesterday.
As an example, Senator George
(D.-Ga.), who has gone along on
most of Mr. Truman's foreign
policy moves, charged that an
effort is being made "to stam
pede congress into quick action."
"The moves that have been
made gave an Impression of an
urgency that is not there," the
Georgia senator declared. "There
Is no need for urgency and it
would be most unfortunate if
action is taken on the arms pro

is set up under the Atlantic
pact."
Dulles Opposes Haste
In submitting the proposal,
President Truman told Congress
he was covering only "the most
pressing needs for military aid."
But Senator Dulles told a re
porter the arms program has
been ready, In about the form
in which it was submitted, for
six months or more.
He said this delay demonstrat

gram was not so pressing it
couldn't wait until Europe's needs
are charted by the North At

Senator Taft of Ohio, chair
man of his party's, policy com

proposal as one that would have
congress "substantially abdicate
all functions relating to foreign
policy."
