e - Gbihmittee Reaches Agreement on Foreign MBill
MS
Most Messages Sent To Kennedy
iFavor Nuclear Test Ban Treaty
Washington-HJPI)-"It will be
a black day for all people if
we do not take this first step
for peace."
"It is another give-in to the
Reds."
These conflicting views on
whether the United States
should sign the nuclear test
ban treaty with Russia were
among more than 2,000 let
ters and telegrams that have
poured into the White House
on the issue. Both messages
came from California.
The White House reported
that messages to President
Kennedy were running about
12 to 1 in favor of the test
ban agreement. It gave report
ers a look Wednesday at a
Tandom selection of the let
ters and telegrams received
since Kennedy's address to
the nation Friday night.
A telegram from Washing
ton state told the President
that "fathers and mothers
thank you" and one from
Brooklyn said "anybody op.
posing the treaty should have
his head examined." A Demo
cratic club in California tele'
graphed praise for the treaty
and urged "more mgn level
conferences."
Can't Rely on Russia
"It is our opinion that this
proposal is nothing . more
than a victory for the cow
ardly pacifists," a Chicago
couple wrote. "We feel that
you are naive to think that
the American people should
be expected to think that
they can rely on' the signa
ture of the Soviet Union."
Another Chicagoan asked
"how many times does the
West have to be sucked in by
Russia before she finally re
alizes that any peaceful
seeming concession such as
the test ban treaty is merely
another chess move in Rus
sia's game to win the world?"
"If we are foolish enough
to disarm, then communism
has us bound and will take
over," , a , Montana couple
wrote.
From Arizona came a tele
gram opposing the treaty,
saying that Khrushchev
should be made to tear down
the Berlin wall and remove
Russian troops from Cuba
and other countries.
"A test ban without an ab
solute foolproof inspection is
suicide," said a telegram
from West Palm Beach, Fla.
A Philadelphia woman
wrote that the treaty "will
stop future fallout, will les
sen the armj race and might
even lead to disarmament."
A letter from Madison, Wis.,
said it was "reassuring to
know that our water and
food will be less contaminat
ed with strontium."
You said what urgently
needs to be said and you said
it with power and authority,'
a letter-writer in Nashville
Tenn., told Kennedy. "Even
FDR could not have done
better."
A letter from Urbana, 111.
said history may record the
treaty as the most significant
action of the Kennedy admin
istration. But an Indiana critic said
the treaty could only help
Russia and that experience
over the past 17 years should
show that it was worthless.

Union Decertified
In Wallowa Voting
Scuttle - IUPII - The Lumber
and Sawmill Workers Union
has lost a vote for certifica
tion at the J. Herbert Bale
Co. sawmill at Wallowa, Ore.,
the National Labor Relations
Board said Wednesday.
An order decertifying the
union was signed by Thomas
P. Graham, NLRB regional
director. The union has 10
days to appeal.
The vote was held June 13
and 300 ballots were cast. The
company and union chal
lenged 154 of the votes, but
eventually 146 votes against
the union and 84 in favor
were counted.
Graham then ruled that 10
of the remaining ballots were
not valid, making it impos
sible for the others to offset
the voles against the union.
Local 2fl0fi went on strike
at the mill June 15, l!lti2, but
it later reopened with non
union workers.
Figure Totals
$438 Million
Less Than Asked
Washington - WPP - The
House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee reached agreement to
day on a foreign aid bill
totaling slightly less than S4.1
billion. This was $438 million
below what President Ken
nedy wanted.
Chairman Thomas E. Mor
gan (D-Pa.) announced the
figure after a closed-door ses
sion. Morgan said a commit
tee vote on the bill would be
taken next week, but that was
only a formality.
The committee approved an
amendment by Rep. Robert R.
Barry (R-N.Y.) calling upon
the industrialized nations to
assume a greater share of the
burden of aiding the under
dt eloped countries.
This was in line with the
committee's feeling that West
ern Europe and Japan should
now take on at least part of
the aid responsibility which
the United States has been
carrying.
A d m i n i s t r ation forces
claimed at least a partial vic
tory by holding down reduc
tions in the face of strong
congressional demands to cut
deeper than ever before. But,
in doing so, they had to ac
cept new restrictions on how
Uncle Sam would hand out
the assistance.
Among other things, the
bill contains a ban on further
U. S. aid to Indonesia unless
President Kennedy makes a
formal finding .that such as
sistance is vital to U. S. interests.
African Arms Prohibited
The committee also insert
ed a prohibition against more
arms aid to African countries
beyond what they need for
reasonable" internal security
reauirements. Kennedy also
could make an exception to
this if he could justify the
move in a finding.
At the same tune, the com
mittee said in advance that if
Cuban Premier Fidel Castro
is overthrown, the new gov
ernment would not receive
any U. S. sugar quota or aid
money unless at least 50 per
cent of American properly
seized by Castro is relumed.
Communist Cuba does not re
ceive U. S.. assistance.
Senate Maneuver Kills Measure
For Bracero Program Extension
Washington-IUPB- Senate lib
erals Wednesday killed a bill
to extend the Mexican farm
labor program by using a
surprise parliamentary ma
neuver. Sen. William Proxmire (D
Wis.) pulled the surprise
when he objected that the bill
had been reported out of the
Agriculture Committee with
out a quorum present.
The House earlier, in a sur
prise move, narrowly voted
down a two-year extension of
the bracero program. An at
tempt to keep the program
al ive beyond this year was
riding on what the Senate did.
Senate opposition had been
led by Sen. Harrison A. Wil
liams (D-N.J.).
Western farmers, especially
in Texas and California, have
traditionally contended that
they needed the supply of
Mexican labor to harvest
their crops. Several church
organizat'ons and labor un
ions have denounced the pro
gram as damaging to U. S. do
mestic workers.
The move in the Senate
came when Sen. Claiborne
Pell (D-R.I.) ruled that the bill
was not properly before the
body after consulting with as-

sistant Senate parliamentar
ian Floyd Riddick.
Pell's ruling was made over
the protests of Sen. Allen J.
Ellender (D-La.) chairman of
the Agriculture Committee,
Sen. Gordon Allout (R-Colo.)
and Sen. Spcssard L. Holland
(D-Fla.).
Pell ruled the bill was still
in the custody of the Agricul
ture Committee, which had
reported it out without hear
ings over the objections of
Proxmire and three other
members.

Special Session
In California
Nears Last Hour ;
Sacramento -IUPII- The 1963 j
legislature, one of the most
bitterly partisan in years,
headed into its final hours
today.
Only one major issue re
mained to be settled: adop
tion of a joint Senate-Assembly
conference committee re
port on slate aid to schools.
Under the accord reached j
in the six-member committee, j
local schools would get an
extra $25 million in yearly J
state aid.
But, responding to Senate
opposition, t h e conferees ;
turned down an administra- j
lion-backed measure to adopt i
a countrywide tax system for j
scnooi support, lorcmn weal
thier districts to share their
money with poorer districts
in the same counties.
With adoption of the re
port, both houses could ad
journ today, completing a
four-week special session
called by Gov. Edmund G.
Brown beginning July 8. j
But Assemblyman Charles
J. Conrad (R-Sherman Oaks),
GOP floor leader, said the ac
tion might be illegal anyway.
He based his statement on
adoption of a resolution by
the assembly Wednesday
changing the lower body's
rules and having the practi
cal effect of firing four GOP ;
committee chairmen and sev
en vice chairmen.
On a 47-26 party line vote.
Democrats changed the rules :
lo require that the positions
be held by members of the
same party as the assembly
speaker.
