tThm Statesman, Salem. Orxyon, Thursday, Sept 21, 1950 Truman Asks Discarding of Aid EM Rider 1 WASHINGTON, Sept 20-iaV , President Truman urged congress tday to refrain from barring eco nomic aid to nations which sell war potential articles to iron cur tain countries. He said that such course carries "dancer to. the United States and to world peace. Mr. Truman presented the ar gument in letters calling on the lawmakers to discard a rider which the senate had tacked Ohio the $17,000,000,000 emergency ap propriation to buy more arms for ' .the, United States -and furnish weapons to friendly nations over seas. ' The president wrote to Senator McKellar (D-Tenn.) .and Rep. Cannon (D-Mo.), chairman of the x appropriations committees of the nwo houses, just -ahead of sched tiled action by the house on the . Issue. There were quick indications that he might make some head way with his plea, but no hints - that the whole idea was likely to be thrown out. At the time the letter was made public key house members were predicting that their branch would accept the senate proposal. . In the late afternoon, however, the decision .was put off until to morrow, with Cannon exnressinff - hope that an acceptable compro mise' can be worked out in the meantime. The postponement fol lowed considerable maneuvering aimed at lining up votes to make the ban less rigid. ; There was no important dispute among the house, senate and White House over other provisions of the bill. Its principal allotments re $11,738,000,000 for national defense and $4,000,000,000 for for eign arms aid. . . ' The ban on economic assistance to countries selling waruseful ma terials to the soviet east never had been passed on by the house be fore the measure came up there .. today. i Mr. Truman pointed out that the language 01 ue Din covers any crucies wmcn might be used for the production of military mate riel" and said that takes in prac tically everything. Thus if it were jnade effective, he said, the result would amount to a complete em bargo. He added: i "To cut this trade off suddenly wouia . Dring about dislocations in fhe : western nations that would more than offset any advantages mat mignt be gained." . . Missing Gash Hints Murder !, NEWBERG, Sept.
