Congressional . criticism of proposed program has centered on the amount involved since the state department agreed yesterday to strike out of the bill the broad powers first asked for the presi dent to give arms to any nation. Say Sun Tee Large A strong segment of opinion in house and senate clung to the idea that the sum asked is far too large. The administration views it as the minimum, needed at once to dis courage any Russian idea of ag gression. Secretary of State Acheson goes before the combined senate for eign relations and armed services committees Monday to testify on the revised measure. The committees will hear the chiefs of . staff Wednesday, just after their return from a survey of the western European military situation. Most Justify Money At that time, Tydings said the plea for the appropriation will have to be justified thoroughly. "It's up to the chiefs of staff to explain in terms of guns, tanks and planes the need, for the full $1,450,000,000" the Maryland sen ator said. "I think congress will give them what they say is neces sary to carry out the best defense plan." But Senator George (D-Ga), a foreign relations member, said he thinks the amount is "too big." "I am not committed to spending any such amount on this pro gram," he said.

C -VPh A mild nm-up in the last few minutes left grain contracts mostly higher on the board of trade today. Deal ings were slow all session and even the late advance did not produce any large : Increase in volume. Wheat ended lower to Vi higher, corn was higher, oats were Vi lower to higher, rye was i-lVi higher, soybeans were 1 to 1 higher and lard was 5 cents lower to 7 cents a hundred pounds higher. Some of the support wheat ob tained again was based on trade reaction to the new farm pro posal, made public late Thursday by a senate agricultural sub committee. It was generally un derstood this measure had a good chance of. passage in view of its support by Senator -. Anderson (D-NM). Traders figured that, on th basis of current parity, the sup port on 1950 wheat as outlined by the original Aiken law would have been $1.85.

The proposed law takes hijred farm labor into considerat-oo when calculating parity. This; is expected to result La an increase In parity of approximately pee cent. On the basis of present parity, that would make the loan on 1950 wheat $1J6 or 11 cents more than under the Aiken law. Considering transportation charges, the loan would figure out at $2-7 at Chicago, analysts said. Of course, they added, par ity likely will change before the loan is announced, with - some possibility it will decline.
