Appropriation Committee
Says Use EC A Funds To
Assist In Rearming Europe
WASHINGTON (P) A move gained headway in the Senate to tap
European recovery funds for part of the $1,000,000,000 cost of re-arming
western Europe.
Members of the Senate appropriations committee are studying a
possible amendment to the economic cooperation administration
(ECA) act to lift some of the arms burden from the American tax
payer.
SMILES FOR PUBLIC Rodeo Queen Ardis Cilei and her court
of four princesses "smiled pretfy" for the people Saturday noon,
following their introduction over the radio to residents of Doug
las County. The 15-minute ceremony was witnejie.d by nearly
100 onlookers and Sheriff posse members as the girls were offi
cially welcomed to the city by Mayor Al Flegel end City Manag
er M. W. Slankard. Accompanied by loudspeakers mounted on
autos and pou members "mounted" in cars, the girls toured
city streets proclaiming the coming Douglas County Sheriff's
posse rodeo, slated June 24-2S. Pictured above, from le (front
row) Fern Osborn, Pat McKinney, (back row) Rita Kruse, Queen
Ardis, Shirley Hart. IW I. Worrall photol
The idea was proposed first by
Senator Lodge (R-Mass), who
works closely in foreign affairs
with Republican Senator Vanden
berg of Michigan. It has been pick
ing up support despite opposition
from ECA Chief Paul Hoffman.
There were reports, too, that
President Truman's plan to aid
backward areas of the world is
under heavy fire within the sen
ate appropriations committee.
These developments came as the
senate foreign relations and arm
ed services committee were call
ed into a closed-door meeting (9:30
a.m., EST) to study a new draft
of the foreign arms aid bill.
Arms Program
The measure would authorize a
$1,222,500,000 overseas arms pro
gram. Some senators have balked
at a provision which would give
President Truman authority to use
10 percent of the funds wherever
he believed they might be needed
to re-arm friendly nations.
The new version of the bill is
believed to put strings on this Pre
sidential power to use funds in an
emergency.
Senator Knowland (R-Calif) said
appropriations committee members
are "exploring fully" the possibi
lity of using part of the $4,900,
000,000 in reserve funds piled up
by the Marshall plan countries.
For each dollar of American aid,
the European nations put the equi
valent of a dollar in their own
money into an account to be' used
for recovery projects. These are
known as counterpart funds.
The U. S. government has sole
control over 5 percent of these
funds. The other 95 percent can be
spent only by agreement between
the United States and the partici
pating countries.
New Use Suggested
Senator McCarran (D-Nev) told
.reporters he saw no reason why
these funds could not be used to
strengthen the military defenses of
western Europe. Both McCarran
and Knowland are members' of the
appropriations group.
Hoffman told the foreign relations
and armed services groups yester
day that he was strongly opposed
to usirig counterpart funds for mil
itary purposes. He said every cent
was needed tc help Europe toward
recovery.
Hoffman argued that to use re
covery money for military purpos
es would give the Communists
fresh ammunition in their charges
that America wants to prepare
Europe for another war.
The ECA chief promised to seek
an explanaion from Prime Minister
Attlee of the British government's
position on the French plan to pool
Europe's steel and coal.
He called the British Labor par
ty's staement rejecting the plan
"one of the most deplorable exam
ples of isolationism in its worst
form. '
Britain Is Going
On Record As Not
Anti-Cooperative
LONDON. UP) Prodded by
American criticism, Britain is go
ing on record that it isn't staying
out of a proposed coal-steel pool
because it opposes European co
operation.
British ambassadors in Washing
ton and Paris were told urgently to
explain Britain will .insider join
ing the pool as soon as details of
the plan's operation are known.
The move came after . Prime
Minister Clement Attlee conferred
with Foreign Secretary Ernest
Bevin at the hospital where Bevin
is recovering from an operation.
The government has accepted a
cnallenge to debate the plan and its
own position June 26. Both British
conservatives and European social
ists have attacked a British Labor
party statement which rejected the
proposals of French Foreign Minis
ter Robert Schuman.
The party opposed establishing a
European central authority with
power for decision that would af
fect the economy of member coun
tries. Attlee has said that the Labor
party's statement does not repre
sent the government's official
stand. Dean Acheson, U. S. secre
tary of state, has accepted that
view.
But the government here fears
that U. S. congressmen, reacting
unfavorably to the party document,
might up set Marshall plan funds
scheduled for Britain.
Both Bevin and Attlee reported
ly feel that it the party statement
had come either a little earlier or
later, it would not have had the
"ect it did have.
Although the British are not tak
ing part in a Schuman plan confer
ence that be'gins Tuesday in Paris,
they have made arrangements to
be informed of all the details of
the talks.
Preach What You
Wish, Methodist
Pastors Advised
PORTLAND, June 19 P The
Oregon conference of Methodist
churches closed here yesterday
with Bishop Gerald H. Kennedy
announcing assignments for pastors
m the coming year.
In a Saturday speech Bishop
Kennedy called for intellectual
freedom in church conferences. It
was interpreted as a defense for
the sometimes-criticized Methodist
federation for social action, which
has spoken up on liberal issues.
"Anything can be brought up on
the floor of the conference that
anybody wants to bring up," the
bishop said.
"If any group of people decides
there is some subject they don't
want brought up, that group doesn't
belong in a Methodist church," he
said.
The bishop also told three new
ministers, "do not retreat one inch
from stating your convictions . . .
no layman has the right to tell
you what to preach, and no bishop
ever will."
The federation for social action
presented three resolutions and the
conference adopted them. They
were: a poposal for regular read
ing before congregations of the
church's social creed; commenda
tion for Portland's enactment of
an anti-discrimination ordinance:
and a resolution opposing the
Mundt-Ferguson-Nixon bill before
Congress. The measure is popularly
known as the bill to outlaw Com
munism. The resolution said it
would endanger civil liberties.
The conference also passed a
resolution calling for the President
to create a secretary for peace
in his cabinet.

Worker Need Not Retire
To Get Old-Age Benefits
A worker over 65 doesn't have
to retire permanently to receive
benefits. He may enter or leave
employment as often as he likes.

is not covered by the law.
Before benefits can be pnid to
a worker or survivor, an applica
tion must be filed. Payments are
not made automatically.
To prevent possible loss of
benefits, Paul F, Johnson, mana
