Oke Acknowledges Waste in ForDgn
Aid: Asks Steps 'Be Taken To Stop 04

Washington - (UPD - Presi
dent Eisenhower sent to Con
gress today a report ac
knowledging waste and mal
administration in the foreign
aid program and calling for
steps to end it.
.The report also recommend
ed that nations receiving aid
seek, to guarantee increasing
ly honest government at their
end. , -
The report, prepared by a
presidential study committee
of former government of
ficials, was transmitted to
Congress by Eisenhower with
out comment.
The committee,, headed by
William" H. DraDer Jr.. also
recommended long-range fi
nancing of the overseas - de
velopment loan fund, a pro
posal that the President him
self once opposed.
Congress has approved a
compromise bill, now on the
President's des awaiting nis
signature, which authorizes
$3,556,200,000. in foreign aid
spending during the current
fiscal year. v -Big
Baltl Ahead
But the big foreign aid
battle, in which charges of
waste and maladministration
will play a large part, is. still
to come. The compromise bill
merely "authorizes" expendi
tures and Congress still must
put up the actual money.
The Presidential commit
tee said its members were
'.'aware of the charges of
waste and maladministration
made in connection with our
aid Droeram." but added:
While we believe that the
administration and coordina
tion of these programs has
improved in recent years,
there is no question but that
some of these criticisms are
justified.
"However, the conclusion
we reach is that the programs
must be continued and better
administered, not emasculated
or abandoned."
It recommended creation of
a single federal agency to ad
minister all economic aid pro
grams now scattered through
out the goverment under gen
eral supervision of the State
Department.
One Responsible Unit t
The ' committee suggested
that the proposed single for-

Mum off Castro To Power
eign aid agency might be
made a semi-autonomous unit
within the State Department.
But it definitely favored set
ting up the agency outside the
department as an independent
unit of government with basic
responsibility for all major
related economic assistance
programs. '
The committee also said in
ternal conditions of countries
receiving U.S. aid are of equal
importance. . It recommended
that the U.S. Vinsist" that aid
ed nations meet these condi
tions: .'
Increasingly honest and
efficient government.
An internal taxation sys
tem providing a level of
revenue consistent with the
wealth of the country. " 'l
-Fiscal and monetary prac
tices to promote reasonable
domestic price stability. ,
The $3,556,200,000 foreign
aid bill now on his desk was
cut 9 per cent below Eisen
hower's original request.
Havana-(UPD-Havana, a city
of more than a million people,
and the rest of Cuba were
paralyzed for one hour today
by a strike called by organ
ized labor to demand the re
turn of Fidel Castro to power.
Exactly at 10 a.m. Havana
time, the whole city's work
ing force, with the exception
of those persons in the most
urgent jobs, walked out.
Roadblocks Erected
Roadblocks were erected
throughout the city to pre
vent movement of any traffic
and the quiet was broken
only by the conversation of
workers idling in the streets
and sporadic parades of indi
viduals demanding that Castro
return to power.
The strike was so effective
that not even the cable com
panies were allowed to oper
ate and the telephone com
pany refused to take long dis
tance calls unless they were
urgent.
Wednesday, the giant. Cu
ban Confederation of Labor
headed by David Salvador de
creed the one-hour strike in
order to demand the return
of Castro as prime minister.
Asked People To Halt
Salvador not only urged the
workers to go off. their jobs
but asked that people, regard
less of what they were doing,
halt their activities during the
hour in order to identify
themselves with the move
ment of support for the revo
lution. Wednesday night, Castro
said in an emotional television
appearance that he would al
low the people themselves to
decide on Sunday whether he
will return to the prime min
istership.
1 After the hour-long strike
was over, crowds continued
to mill about; in front of the
Presidential Palace
There was little doubt here
that the mass rally to which
Castro will direct his query
Sundav would keen him on
the job with wild acclaim.
Peasants Enter Capital
The rallv. celebrating tne
sixth anniversary of the state
of Castro's revolution, will be
swelled by machete wielding
neasants who have been
streaming into the capital by
tens of thousands.
The bearded Castro made
his announcement in a one
hour and 35-minute telecast
that ended earlv this morning
It was his briefest telecast on
record. They have run as long
as four hours.

American Exhibit
To Open on Time
Moscow (UPD The director
of the American exhibition in
Moscow said today the show
"will be ready" for its sched
uled opening Friday and "it
will be a great show."
Director Harold McClellan
made the statement to Ameri
can and Soviet newsmen who
were given a preview of the
exhibition.. . .
Many of the correspondents
estimated, however, that tne
exhibition was three-quarters
finished and they didn't see
how it possibly could be com
pleted on time.
Millions are clamoring for
tickets, but so far none have
been issued.
The worst that can happen
if the exhibition isn't finished
on time is that the Soviet visit
tors will have to pick their
way through piles of boxes, j
construction materials, and i
- - r J
mud puddles in moscow s bo
kolniki Park to see what the
United States is-all about.
