In Washington yesterday. 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. You can't hire thcrrt
ft) be. wise and prudent. What
'gas happened in the case, of a)
ft;.!' of buf foreign aid is fhttoh,
tiro same as what' happens
w lien people give too m- u e ft
money to their children without
first teaching them the pruvis
p!rs of handling money wiso.i-y.
Foreign aid has spoiled a, Int
el! nations, just as too much

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?

250 were reported still alive and
the status of 421 was unknown.
Jlesree workers wearing gas
masks were making a three
pronged drive through the mine
from two adjacent coal mines
in fte faint hope that some of
the,- trapped men might still be
alive. But all electric power
fatted inside tlie pit and potson
bbs gases filled tlie passage
ways. -Many corrWom were blocked
by roekfaUs, making rescue
.difficult.
