'Save the Dollar' Mission Will Plead Case in London British Expected To Turn Down Financial Pleas London - (UPB - U.S. Treas ury Secratary Robert Ander son and State Department Un dersecretary C. Douglas Dil lon arrived here today on the last lap of their thus-far fruit less mission to Europe to "save the dollar." France and Germany have both rejected U.S. pleas for greater financial support to NATO and help pay the costs to maintain American sol diers in Europe. And Britain is expected to do likewise. To Cut Down Coils The purpose of Anderson's mission with other top Amer ican officials is to cut down U.S. costs overseas and keep Washington's gold reserve from slipping away. Informed sources said the French refused to contribute to the costs of maintaining American troops on French soil. The French also turned down an appeal to tal'e over a bigger share of the burden of aid to underdeveloped countries. Anderson and Dillon ar ranged to meet today with Chancellor of the Exchequer Selwyn Lloyd at the treas ury. But there were indications that Britain would follow France and Germany In re jecting U.S. pleas for more fi nancial support. The British were expected to argue that this country has gone to the limit of its capabilities in de fense contributions. Next to the United States, Britain claims to carry the largest per-hcad share In the Western alliance. British offi cials also maintain they have already extended consider able aid ' to underdeveloped nations. .However, Britain was like ly to back American demands in NATO for a fairer share of the burden by nations which have thus far remained far behind the United States and Britain - notably West Germany. a.j&t xkf MOTHER, SON 'FINE' Dr. John Wal?h, Mrs. John F.
