Macmillan came here deter mined to tell Eisenhower that be cause of sagging finances and eco nomic pressure at home, Britain must retrench. The British feel there can be no change in that basic decision. American officials said the U.S. government recognizes the grav ity of Britain's plight but is wor ried about the elfect of the planned cutbacks on the free world's de fenses. They think Macmillan is prepared to negotiate the timing and extent of the reductions. The United States, these officials said, so far has not been fully and officially informed of Britain's plans. Washington knows Britain in the next year will call home some 13,000 of the 80,000 men it has in West Germany, an an nounced plan. Qualified informants said Britain also is planning to withdraw most of its 5,000 troops in soutn Korea, but the United States has not had official information of this, or of what will happen to British com mitments in Hong Kong, Singa pore, Malaya and Libya.

Kennedy, committee counsel, cautioned Brewster that "if someone goes to jail" for the alleged discrepancy "it will be Frank Brewster" and not the auditor. "I know that," Brewster said, his forehead wrinkling in an ex pression of deep concern. "Isn't it possible that some of that (difference) could be ex penses?" he asked. $11,000 ExpensesT Kennedy asked whether Brew ster thought it was either possible or reasonable that his expense ac counts to the internaional union that year could account for the pproximately sil.ooo difference between two figures on the two reports. Pierre Salinger, a staff investi gator, testified that a check signed by Brewster on the West ern Conference's funds was used to buy a car registered in the name of Mary James, Route 1, Bothel . Wash. Salinger said he found out in a telephone interview with Miss James that the cor was purchased for her in June 1954 for $3,115 by Terry McNulty, paid as a union organizer. There has been previous testi mony that McNulty, while carried on the conference's payroll as an organizer, devoted considerable time to Brewster's horse racing stables, Salinger said McNulty, also in terviewed by committee investiga tors, claimed the price of the car was refunded in rash to tne west- In suggesting the survey. County.

Informed speculation has been .that It would like to bring annual defense costs down from 114 billion pounds ($4,200,000,0001 to one billion. for 16 years. It would moke pos sible the abandonment ot many such roads. The Senate sent to the House a bill enacting a complete new code governing operation ot coopera tives.
