Sec retary of State Dean Rusk toH reporters at a news confer ence that Congress should- stop, trying to legislate foreign poll icy and should back U.S. troops overseas v illi foreign- ajd dp lars. He added: "I'm very much! concerns -about- the present tendency in tile Congress to legislate for eign policy. Foreign policy is President Kennedy's jofe-andif things go wrong, the congress men who propose amendments are not' going to stand up and; take the blame."- Oregon's Senator Morse im mediately disagreed and served notice that Secretary Rusk's words won't deter him from leading a fight in the Senate to rewrite the aid bill drastically. "The Senate," he said, "has an obligation, as well as the executive branch of our federal government. The Senate's job is to go through the bill as it has been doing, section by section, country by country, and decide whether it wants to bring an end to some of the waste and corruption in the for eign aid program." He fhen added that when he spoke of waste and corruption lie was not referring to Ameri cans but to the foreign recipi ents of American aid money. ,''''????? Well, this writer quite, goi along with Senator Mdrse:s views on foreign aid and hops he doesn't pull his punches- at any point. As it was used- un der the Marshall Plan to bind up the wounds and repair- thet destruction of the Great War among our allies, foreign, aid w as wonderful. But as is be"; ing used more lately, it comes close to being a nationaj sSnv Kyrfta'n nature is hurn'a'ir. ? l-sitt. You can't bribe' people to il's -sood.

More from Washington: Agriculture, department econ omists report that the total as sets of American farmers have risen to a record high of 816 5 BILLION. Which is to say: TOT.U, ASSETS of American farmers amount to only 70 per cent of our present national debt. In other words: If AU, the issets ef ALL American farmers were con fiscated in order to obtain the money with which to pay off our national debt, the money thus obtained would pay off only 70 per cent of it. It's a bit shocking, isn't it?
