WASHINGTON, Aug. -ilV
Senator Tydings (D-Md) called
on military leaders today to spell
out in terms of guns, tanks and
planes the arms aid needed by
western European signers of the
North Atlantic treaty. ;
Ty dings, who heads the senate
armed services committee, told a
reporter he thinks President Tru
man's request for $1,450,000,000 to
finance a foreign arms, program
will stand or fall on the detailed
needs shown by the chiefs of
staffs.
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.
EVALUATION INCREASES
PORTLAND, Aug. 6 The
assessed valuation of property in
Multnomah' county reached a rec
ord high of $590,860,655 today, the
county assessor said. The figure is
144,327,770 over last year.

Contracts End
At High Level
CHICAGO, Aug. 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

have been $1.85. This is the law

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

loan is announced, with - some
possibility it will decline. But the
