PAGE TW O SCANNING THE WEEK'S NEWS 7\ the of Main Street and the World Everyone Fascinated By Action Windmill WASHINGTON Administration's Foreign Aid "'J.* in Congress 17787327 AID TO ALLIES— Although President Truman and Secretary of State Achcson took to the radio and television in an attempt to gain public support for the administration’s $7,900,000,000 program for m ilitary and economic aid to our allies, the program faces a bitter test before a money conscious congress. The administration feels that the $7,900,000,000 represents a figure that has already been cut to the extreme and has decided to fight any further cuts-> Congress, on the other hand, which is considering the largest peacetime” budget in the nation's history, must find some way to cut the budget and thus reduce deficit spending. An increase in taxes in an election year, which would be necessary if the budget is not slashed, is an unheard of thing. As a result, one of the items that must be cut. from the congressional viewpoint, is foreign aid. In view of the fact that the United States is attempting to build up a European army, it is unlikely that m ilitary aid w ill be reduced. That leaves the $2,000,000,000 for economic aid. There is strong sentiment in congress for eliminating this item entirely. Aside from the money angle congressional reaction to the program w ill be of importance in that m ili tary and economic assistance to nations standing up to Soviet communism Is a cornerstone of the administration's foreign policy. An important fact in the coming congressional battle over foreign aid is the fact it is not drawn along strict party lines. A number of Demo j crats, as well as Republicans, have announced themselves in favor of a great slash in foreign aid funds, some as much as 50 per cent. POLITICAL NEWS— Sen. Richard B Russell of Georgia has an nounced he w ill seek the Democratic presidential nomination. But the senator did not plunge deeply enough into the political pool to suit the bitter anti-Truman wing of southern Democrats. He refused to let himself be regarded as the center of an anti-Truman Democratic rebellion should the Presi dent be nominated again. He insists that Truman w ill not be a candidate for reelec tion, but admitted he had no facts or information upon Which to base his belief, f« Russell was firm about one thing. "So far as I can see, I w ill support the Demo Sen. Russell (right) with Sen. Walter F. cratic nominee.” he said, George, also of Georgia.
