Marshall Plan
Slashes Believed
Almost Certain
By I.yle C. Wilson
(UnUnl rrtu Staff Corrltondnt)
Washington, Doc. 13 dli The
congressional economy ox swung
ever hearer the Marshall plan
today after a hint from sen
ate majority lender Scott W. Lu
cas, 111., that he might go a'ong
with some reduction.
Congressional Investigators re
turning from Europe have been
generally agreed that Marshall
plan appropriations should be re
duced in the next session which
convenes January 3.
The foreign economic aid bill
passed last Septsmber appro-
Dr ated 55.Wiu.uou.uuu. ui tnis w,
852.380.000 was for the European
recovery program 1,074,000.000
for the last three montns oi ns
cal 1949 and $3,778,380,000 for this
fiscal year. Senators beat down
house ettorts to cut tne iigure.
Lucas discussed the next ses
sion program in a news confer
ence here yesterday. He said he
would go along with a cut in
Marshall plan spending "if we
can make the cut without crip
pling the program." That is what
the homecoming congressional in
vestigators claim they know how
to do.
Legislation Considered
Repeal of federal taxes on oleo
margarine will be No. 1 on the
senate schedule, Lucas said, to be
followed soon by a bill to estab
lish a nation fair employment
practices commission and to deal
with displaced persons. FEPC
would prohibit discrimination in
hiring on grounds of race or re
ligion. Enforcement would be up
to the justice department.
Attorney general J. Howard
McGrath is confident his depart
ment could enforce FEPC in the
south, where opposition has been
bitter. Dairy states senators are
expected to filibuster against re
moving taxes from oleomargar
ine. Despite these certainties of ex
tended talk, the administration
believes it can carry both bills
to enactment. But it is recog
nized that the senate's new "gag3,
rule on filibusters probably will
be "needed to silence southern op
position to any civil rights legislation.
No Humor?
Detroit, Dec. 13 mi Circuit
Judge Frank Fitzgerald granted
Mrs. Margaret Huffman a di
vorce, but admitted today that he
hadn't divided whether she or her
husband had a sense of humor.
Mrs. Huffman testified that her
husband, Edward, threw eggs at
her when she remarked to guests
that egg shampoos were good for
the hail .
"Another time." she said, "I
held an empty bottle over Ills
head and pretended I was going
to sprinkle him."
Huffman promptly deposited
her. fully clothed, into a well-filled
bathtub, she said.
"He just didn't have any sense
of humor," she complained.
JUNIOR PLAY POPULAR
Madras, Dec. 13 The Madras
union high school junior play,
"Antics of Andrew," drew a capa
city audience at the school's gym
. nasium stage Friday evening. The

Chiang Drafting
Plans to Defend
Island Fortress
Taipeh, Formosa, Dec. 13 HP
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek
drafted plans today for the de
fense of Formosa against an ex
pected communist amphibious as
sault from the mainland.
Army, navy and air chiefs met
under the direction of Chiang as
nationalist army sources express
ed confidence that the remaining
nationalist forces would be able
to repel a direct assault.
Military sources refused to com
ment on the combined strength
of the nationalist forces here. But
Some 200.000 to 30(1 (Yin men uipro
believed ready to meet a com

One highiy-placed Informant
