Holliday, LaUrens, Rt .1, and George E. Wasson, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. George E. Was son, Sh., Laurens, Rt. 3. Carl Stod dard, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Stoddard, Owings, placed in the f , taling $5,766,720,928, which was $729,541,000 below the budget re quest. In the meantime the house had passed the foreign aid bill with less of a cut than anticipated, and the senate foreign relations com mittee made a further slash and divided authority over the fund be tween the department of defense, for military, the EGA for economic aid, and the state department for Point Four and other foreign as sistance. The House also passed a meas ure authorizing $1,635,000,000 for housing construction in defense areas over determined opposition led by Rep. Jesse P. Wolcott of Michigan, who said there “is no need for it,” and that the measure was a step in the direction of so cialism. Passage came on the heels of an investigation which showed that even members of the armed services were being charged unconscionable rentals for mere shacks unfit for human habitation in these defense areas and near government installations. The appropriation authorization was split up as follows: $50 mil lion for government-constructed housing; $60 million for commun ity facilities and services; $15 mil lion for loans to prefabricated Ora; A.

Observers saw in the opposition the usual charges from men like Representatives Wolcott and How ard Buffet of Nebraska, that any governmental help is socialism Congressman Thomas B. Curtis' IR-Mo.) pleaded with newspapers or any body for recognition of a slash of $15 million which he aaid he got through in the defense de partment appropriation bill. What the Curtis amendment did was not to cut appropriations and funds! appropriated from the treasury by! the defense appropriation bill, but reduced the amount that could be spent from proceeds of a salvage program, on salvage work.

It would mark a precedent and it was pointed out in some sectors that neither the Kansas or Missouri state legis latures had made a single move to help their own people who stood the losses. The congress already had appropriated $25,000,000 for emergency relief of the flood suf- fefers. Observers here point qut that in the Pick-Sloan plan for relief of floods in the Missouri river valley there is nothing but a patchwork development because there is no over-all guiding plan. These same observers declare that the great demand for completion of dams and reservoirs, some of which are included in the civil functions bill, in Kansas, will be built at the ex pense of flooding great areas of farmland which under a more comprehensive plan would be per- /ectuly usable. Some suggestion has been made that, if the proposal of a Missouri Valley Authority is too all-inolusive, that a national committee be named with no axe to grind, to make recommenda tions, possibly for breaking down the authorities into smaller val leys such as the individual water sheds of the Kaw, the Platte, the Big Blue and other rivers.
