man 200 .million Hollars of- aid
nroney voted in "past year hut
not spent or" obligated by mid-
.night June 30.
Mansfield said in art Intcrvi6w
the "maneuyer" of obligating this
amount earmarking .the money
, for specific military itcnls to be
bought in the future has the
regal effect of .spending tbc
money" even though it 'may not
actually be paid out for months
or even .years. . "
FREQUENT CRITICISM , ..
. The- practice of. deadline spend
ing by government agencies, .us
ually on a smaller scale, has been
a subject of congressional criti
cism for years.
Mansfield said the amount obli
gated last Thursday was 575 mil
lion dollars and .that this was
more-than half the total amount
ear-marked during all of June.
He said the Defense Department
thus gained legal authority' to
carry the 575'million dollars Into
the present fiscal year and avoid
ed tho congressional order for a
turnback of all except 200 mil
lions on hand. .
"SHENANIGANS' ' .
Mansfield, a Foreign Relations
committeeman, said last Thurs
day s transaction "amounts to
nothing more than deliberate
shenanigans, incredible shenani
gans practiced on the American
peopla and on Congress.'
"The Defense Department,"
he said, ' apparently thinks it can
avoid an express prohibition of
Congress by the pretense of obi
gating huge amounts of aid
money on the last day of the
fiscal year and then, if it so de
sires, unobligating the same
amount later and keeping it ly
ing around available, for some
future time.

LONDON W Battling.' Bes
sie Braddock, the Labor party
200-poundcr with a punch to
match, made. her. night club
.debut alongside Marlene Diet
rich Tuesday night and gold
plated Lady N'nrah Docker
picked up her marbles in fury.
Marlene is- being introduced
during hoc current . engage
ment at the swank Cafe de
Paris by a different celebrity
nightly. Bessie, Laborite mem
ber of Parliament and presi
dent of the Professional Box
ers Assn., was the barker Tues
day night.
Lady Docker, booked to . balk
next week, was on hand for a
preview. When Bessie curled
her 50-40-50 frame into a bow,
Norah grabbed, her multimil
lionaire husband and her furs
and headed for her gbld
trimmcd Daimler, squawking
"I'm furious."
Lady D. has garnered head
lines in the past by entertain
ing miners on her spouso's
yacht and shooting marbles
with working girls' clubs. But
Tuesday night she demanded of
the club management:
"How dare you ask me to
Introduce" Dietrich after Mrs.
Braddock. You'll never see my
face in this place again.'.'
Bossie took the Docker exit
calmly and went on with her
work. Wearing a dark gray
suit and the bronze medallion
of a boxer, she told the fash
ionable audience, "This isn't
my way. of life." She said she
was doing the . t.urn to help
British'Amcrican relations. She
'said she'd reciprocate by hav
ing Marlene to' lunch at the
House of Commons .next week.
"I've been chasing you -for
weeks," Marlene told Bessie
later. "I just want to get you
alone and talk politics with
you."
What do a pair of 55-year-olds
care about marbtes anyway?

Graham Opens
Swedish Tour
GOTEBORG, Sweden WI-Billy
Graham says Hollywood film
stars are "the most miserable
people in the world."
Bringing his European crusade
to Sweden, the American evange
list told an audience of 19,000 tho
screen luminaries are rich, suc
cessful and popular, but they arq
unhappy because they live apart
from God. . -
"Tho world's problems today
are not H-bombs," Graham con
tinued, "but our human weak
nesses. Human nature must be
fundamentally changed before
there can be peace on earth, he
said.
'Come forward and- let the
royal family of heaven adapt
you.
About 200 persons answered
his call for "decisions for Christ."
