Britain Bars
Recovery In
West Europe
Refuses To Cooperate
In Currency Exchange,
Sen. Ellender Reports
WASHINGTON, July 27-.P
Senator Ellender (D-La.) Tues
day accused Britain ol holding
up recovery In western Kurope
by refusing to go along on a
currency exchange deal to spur
trade.
Ellender reported to the Sen
ate on a three weeks tour of
European countries and renew
ed complaints about Britain that
he had made previously In an
Interview.
His speech came in the midst
of a hot Senate dispute over the
$5,723,000,000 foreign aid pro
gram. He said flatly that the "Mar
shall plan is a failure" unless
the European countries change
drastically the way they are act
ing toward each other on cur
rency exchange.
He said he supposed Britain
has a good reason for acting as
she has. But he declared it is a
"shame that one country is keep
ing back the progress of Europe"
by refusing to make currencies
"more flexible."
The strain of the long session
was beginning to show in the
debate which centered on money
for the second year of the Eu
ropean recovery program.
Senators snapped at each other
angrily over an issue that few
thought would cause a ripple.
The major issues were yet to
come.
The Senate voted $344,000 to
keep a congressional "watchdog"
committee checking on recovery
spending. But not before majority
leader Lucas of Illinois stirred
up a wordy scrap by trying and
foiling to have the funds cut to
$:oo,ooo.
Eliender told friends his trip
convinced him Europe can't re
cover unless: (1) Germany is
pulled back to recovery; (2) Eu
rope produces goods at prices
the people can afford to pay;
(3) and currencies are made
convertible from one European
country to another.
Amendments Offered

opposition !n their fight to elim

Senator Lucas said he was con
fident they would be knocked
out. But chairman McKellar (D
Tennl of the appropriations com
mittee was just as positive the
amendments will remain.
Thev would:
(1) Require the Economic Co

army to use up to about $2,
000,000,000 in aid funds to pur
chase surplus farm commodities.
The money could be used for no
other purpose.
(2) Earmark $50,000,000 of
ECA funds for loans to Spain.
(3) Cut $74.0000,000 off the
ECA's authorization for the last
quarter of the year ended July

(4) Require ECA chief Paul
Hoffman to try to halt the dis
mantling and destruction of cer

which violate treaties with the
United States. This one fs aimed
at France because of alleged dis
crimination against 'American
businessmen in French Morocco.

He used to be known only as a cavorting lea-serpent. But the

Soldier Disguise'
Becomes Reality
WILLIAMS AIR FORCE BASE,
Ariz.-CP)-An escapee from a Nazi
labor battalion who disguised
himself as an American soldier
to get to the United States, is
now a second lieutenant In the
U.S. Air Force. The young man
is Boi ivoj Kubelka, late of Czech
oslovakia. He received his gold bars and
silver wings as a Jet fighter pilot.
When the Germans Invaded
Czechoslovakia they permitted
Kubelka to continue his medical
studies at the University of Pra
gue until 1942. Then he was sent
to a munitions factory near Berlin.
Three years later he escaped and
made his way to Paris. He tried
to enlist In the United States
Army but was turned down. He
went to Le Havre, embarked on
a U. S. troop transport.
Kubelka cleared himself with
the U. S. immigration and Army
authorities by reporting to Ellis
Island. A short time later he was
released and on Dec. 18, 1945,
was sworn in as a private in the
U. S. Air Force. A year later he
was promoted to corporal, and
received his U. S. Citizenship pa
pers. At the Morrison Air Force
Base In Florida he was promoted
to sergeant. His application for
pilot training was accepted.
