Truman Says U.S. May Be on Brink Of Greatest Foreign Policy Disaster CHICAGO UH Harry S. Truman has declared the United States "may be on the brink of one of the greatest foreign policy disasters in its history." "The free world alliances, on which our security depends, are threatened," the former President said in an address Thursday night in which he accused the Eisen hower administration of making a mess of things at home and abroad. . He said the people want the truth, and the facts about the re cession, and he added: "They want action at the top for the good of the nation and, the welfare and the benefit of the ordinary citizen." Brink or pisaster He also wrote this criticism Into a typical give-'em-hell speech: "We may be on the brink of one of the greatest foreign policy dis asters of our history." Truman was billed as the fea tured speaker at a $100-a-plate fund-raising dinner in the Conrad Hilton Hotel, sponsored by the Cook County Chicago Demo crats. ;- . ;. "The Republicans are making' a mess of things in Washington, and we must do something about it before it is too late." he said. The principal answer to the what-to-do question, he suggested, is to increase the' Democratic ma jorities in Congress in the elec tions this fall, and to elect a Dem ocratic president in 1960. Earlier, be told newsman that Indiana Negro Church Joins State Group WARSAW, Ind.'wi - Neighbor hood House, an all-Negro Metho dist church in Fort Wayne, Ind., was admitted to the Northern In diana Conference of the church Thursday. It was the first such transfer from the denomination's Central (Negro) Jurisdiction to any. of the three conferences in, Indiana. The admittance came on a unanimous vote of 800 ministerial and lay delegates at the confer ence session. A spokesman said similar trans fers of other Negro churches are under way in Indiana. I the Democrats will win both tests if current conditions continue. Truman, in nig speech, con tended the Eisenhower adminis tration: "Increased unemployment . by more than 100 per cent" from about two million when he left the White House to more than five million now. Reduced Frra Income "Reduced farm Income from soma 17 billion dollars in 1952 to less, than 12 billion in 1957." Witnessed a rise in, business failures In March to the highest level in 19 years.' Watched the cost of living rise eight per cent to a record height. Slowed the growth of our eco nomy to a stop" to a point where "shrinkage set in.' Increased the national debt. Faces an estimated budget de ficit of 10 billion dollars for the next fiscal year. "Permits disaster to threaten us from abroad." . "The most terrifying result of this five-year period of Republican do-nothingism," he said, "is that the Soviet Union has been driving ahead while we have been slipping backward in relative strength." At first, the President intended to leave, corrective measures to his Air Coordination Committee, headed by Lt. Gen. Elwood R. (Pete) Quesada, a retired Air Force officer. He had directed Quesada to start a' study of the problem Friday.. , But later, after conferring with members of a House subcommit tee working on aviation safety. Ei senhower decided on prompter steps. ; He authorized - Quesada to in struct the Civil Aeronautics Ad ministration and other federal agencies concerned to act at once to prevent 'future midair smash- Ups. . '; ' A five-point program' was an nounced at the White House: by Rep. Prince H. Preston (D-Ga), chairman of the House .subcom mittee. It provides for these changes in flying regulations: l. jei irainer aircraft iiown py student pilots on civilian rways win De required to operate unaer instrument flight rules IFR. At present, Preston said, such craft operate under visual flight rules except at night and in bad weather. 2. Military jet trainers when traveling from higher to lower al titudes will be required to do so off civilian airways. 3. Itinerant cross - country, for example jet planes will be re quired to file flight plans with the CAA. 4. Jet trainer pilots making pro ficiency flights will be required to do so off the civilian airways. 5. Operation flights, as disting uished from training flights, must be made on the civilian airways uner IFR restrictions and CAA control. Preston said he wanted to em phasize that this is a short-range, emergency program. He added the CAA expects to have a long- range safety program in effect in about 90 days. Sixty - one persons have been killed in two sky collisions be tween commercial airliners and military planes within the last month. Twelve died Tuesday when a Capital Airlines plane and a Maryland National Guard jet trainer collided over Brunswick, Md. Capital reported Thursday on of its Viscount planes carrying 19 persons was narrowly missed by a B47 jet bomber over Ohio Wednesday. GLAUCOMA!
