CALL DM FOR IfliU Truman Commends Congress as Foreign Aid Measure Signed Washington, June 5 U.R) President Truman commended members of congress of both political parties for their pas sage of tile foreign economic as sistance act of 1B50 as he signed that measure today. In a formal statement, the president said: "I have today signed the for eign economic assistance act of 1950. This act is a major con tribution to peace and freedom in the world. "This memorable act is a trib ute to the wisdom and vigor of the forward-looking members of the congress of both political parties, of both houses, and par ticularly to the hard work of the responsible congressional committees. Forward Authority "The foreign economic assist ance act contains within it the authority to go forward with five programs of foreign aid. "It authorizes, first, continua tion of the European recovery program for a third year. "It authorizes, second, con tinued aid to the free peoples of Korea, southeast Asia and non communist China. "It makes possible, third, a program of relief and public works for the Arab refugees from Palestine. "Fourth, it provides legisla tive authority for going ahead with the program of technical assistance to help build up eco nomically under-developed areas, a program which has become known as 'point four.' "And. finally, it authorizes continuing support for United i,u Shading iosui In Just ONE MINUTE.. . you can prove to yourself PHILIP MORRIS is definitely less irritating therefore more enjoyable than the brand you're now smoking! 31 E...Js 2 . . . light up a PHILIP MORRIS THfN, tt rake a puff-DONl INMAlE-and i-l-o-w-l-y let the moke come through your nose.

Contribute to Purpose "Each of the five programs authorized in this act will con tribute to our purpose of strengthening the cause of free dom, through economic meas ures which will demonstrate the effectiveness of free institutions in meeting human needs. "Taken together, they add up to a broad, enlightened and typ ically American enterprise in the building of a safe and pros perous world. "Four of these five programs are already under way. "In the first two years of the European recovery program, with our essential aid, the peo ple of Europe have made great strides in rebuilding their econ omies. This has enabled them to preserve and strengthen their free institutions, and to deal suc cessfully with the threat of com munism on their own soil. They are drawing closer together in common purpose and in com mon defense. I am confident that this third year of our assistance will give impetus to increasing cooperation by these countries, will add greatly to their col lective strength and will bring closer the day when they can contribute on a self-sustaining basis to the economic growth of all free nations. Considerable Support "The benefits of American support to independent Korea, non-communist China and cer tain new countries in southeast Asia have been considerable. Mil lions of people in Asia have re- challenges brand . . . light up your present brand Do exactly the tame thing DON'T inhaie. Notice that bite, that sting? Quite a difference from PHIIIP MORRISt cently become independent. They see in that independence a chance to work for a better life. We have supported their independence. The economic aid authorized in this act will give them tangible evidence of our continuing friendship and sup port. "I am especially glad that the congress has taken action with respect to the problem of the Arab refugees from Palestine. The program authorized in this bill carries out the recommend ations of the United Nations eco nomic survey mission for the near east, headed by Mr. Gor don Clapp. This program has been drawn up in the light of the serious problems facing the Palestine refugees, and with the economic potential of the near east in mind. Successful devel opment in this area will make an obvious contribution to the main tenance of peace. To achieve this aim, we shall need the cooper ation of other members of the United Nations, who have ex pressed their interest in the prob lems of the Arab world. We shall count, also, on the contin ued work of private agencies Government programs will sup plement, but not replace, their work. Familiar With UN Work "Many Americans have be come familiar with the magnifi cent work of the United Nations on behalf of children whose lives were damaged by war and its aftermath. This act will enable us to support new and perman ent arrangements, under which the United Nations can deal with the continuing needs of chil dren. In the meantime, we can give such support to the present emergency fund as may be need ed to prevent a lapse in this es sential work. "The major new step forward in this act is the authorization it contains for a program of technical assistance for the under-developed areas of the world. The exchange of technical knowl edge and skills, and the foster ing of capital investment abroad, are not new ideas. They are in line with the American tradi tions of initiative and free en terprise. "But we are now ready to put these activities on an organ ized, sustained basis and to di rect them toward the building of a more prosperous and peace ful world. If we can, gradually but steadily, help to replace sickness and health, illiteracy with education, poverty wilh a higher standard of living, for the millions of peoples who live in under-developed areas, we shall make a tremendous contribution to the strength of freedom and the defeat of communist imperi alism. To Assist Nations "This act will, enable us to give, from our abundant store of scientific and technical know! edge, assistance to under-developed nations who have the ini tiative and vigor to help them selves. "This act authorizes activities by the government. But far more than government action will be required. I look forward to the continued work of the many pri vate groups who have had ex periencc in this field. 1 look for ward to the interest of our young people, whose technical skills can find such important employ ment in this work. I look for ward to expanded business in vestment in these areas whicli will be made possible as their economic systems grow in strengtli and stability. I hope the congress will soon enact the com panion measure to this act which will encourage and support such business investment. "The present act Is a mem orable step forward in our pro gram for peace. I am confident that the congress will follow through promptly by appropri ating the full measure of funds necessary to carry out the pro grams authorized in this act."
