'VOTES AGAINST FOREIGN AID
The Senate has approved over
say objections and those of 21 of
any colleagues a foreign aid ap
propriations bill totaling approxi-
anately $3.2 billion for fiscal year
&9»6. This measure will now go
to a Senate-House Free Confer
ence committee where I hope
conference members will agree on
lower House approved figure
0t $2.6 billion since it cannot be
ceduced below that amount. This
conference will be interesting to
nratch because several House
npnombers have already stated
t*hey will not approve a penny ov
er $2.6 billion.
In addition to voting against
^nal passage of this huge spend-
tng program, I also voted in favor
cf a number of amendments offer
ed by Senator Ellender designed
to reduce the appropriations by
25 per cent.
MORE SPENDING FOR 1956
While I dp believe that a cer-
damaninotu ga-
dain amount of foreign spending
da necessary to stave off commun-
dsm in friendly countries, I can-
cot agree to vote extra money for
#>«l« purpose when this program
Chould be tapering off. Some of
dhese nations we have been send-
Hmg aid since World War II are
MOir on their feet economically
cad need little if any assistance
tBram the United States.
With this , appropriation passed
the Senate, we will have given
eway more than $37 billion in
jmic aid and more than $20
billion in military aid through
fiscal year 1956. This money—
which we have had to borrow—
has been sperjt over 11 ypars thru
some 30 major foreign assistance
programs.
BYRD MAKES STRONG POINT
In a speech on the Senate floor
Senator Harry Byrd, chairman of
the Finance committee, made this
point: “If we did not now have
this expenditure for foreign aid
and if we did not have to pay the
interest on the debt created by
previous foreign aid expenditures,
we could balance the budget and
reduce taxes across the board by
five and one-half per cent.
It is disheartening to those of
us who have been taking consol
ation in the thought that foreign
aid spending was declining to find
that this year, instead of curtail
ing these expenditures, the admin
istration has requested funds to
increase appropriations by ap
proximately 10 per cent over last
year.
If we are ever going to balance
the budget and give the necessary
tax relief at home, then I believe
we must begin to curtail foreign
spending at a time when most
of the other nations of the world
have regained their standing eco
nomically and are enjoying sbme
degree of prosperity.
SENATE VOTES INCREASED
FARM SALES
Finding more markets for our
surplus farm commodities is one
of my prime objectives in the
Senate. Thus, I was very pleased
last, week when the Senate gave
approval to a <bill that makes it
possible for the Secretary of Ag
riculture to sell more of our sur
pluses overseas.
I know of no segment of our
population which receives so lit
tle for its efforts and hard work
as do our farmers. By selling more
of our farm surpluses to foreign
nations, we can improve condi
tions for our farmers by enabling
them to plant more basic crop
acreage, to receive greater as
surance of more stable govern
ment price supports, and to reap
higher cash benefits from their
crops.
4J. S. and S. C. MUST EXPORT
The United States is a land of
vast production—both agricultur
ally and industrially. I am proud
to state that South Carolina ranks
hign among the States in both
agricultural and induatrial pro
duction. We must therefore find
more markets for our products un
less we are going to continue to
stockpile billions more In govern
ment surplus warehouses.
Our government now has ap
proximately $8 billion tied up in
farm surpluses. For this reason,
I favor giving the Secretary of
Agriculture broad authority for
the purpose of developing more
markets to help reduce our stock
pile of surpluses.
SUPPORTS SURPLUS SALES
The bill as passed by the sen
ate would authorize the Secretary
to accept twice as much foreign
currency in payment for surplus
commodities as currently author
ized. This means he would be
able to sell $1 and one-half billion
worth of farm surpluses in ex
change for foreign currency. In
addition, the bill gives the Secre
tary more authority in determin
ing where we can export certain
commodities. These two features
of the bill should open more world
markets to our farmers. I was
glad to give it my full support on
the Senate floor.
BOYS ARE
By J. M. ELEAZER
For the past three weeks we
have talked here about what we
boys carried in our pockets in
the Stone Hills of the Dutch Fork
in our time.
It is not different now, or
wasn’t with our boy. For boys are
Just that way, you know.
All of that plunder a boy treas
ures so, and insists on carrying
in his pockets, is perplexing to
mothers. It is heavy, makes the
pockets ibulge, and wears them out
so. But, to a boy, life wouldn’t be
much without it.
Our overalls had pockets all
around. But none of ’em were
worth much to us but the two in
front. Climbing, and running, and
jumping like monkies, the stuff
would lose out of all of the others
so easy. But the twd deep front
pockets held our treasurers more
securely. And when a hole wore
ill one of them, it waa serious. „
Back then folks oikly had muz
zle-loading guns there in the Fork
and shot came in small sacks.
They were very strong and tough.
Had to be to hold those / heavy
shot. Those sacks were prized
highly to make pockets out of,
specially for boys. And when a
garment got a set of those pock
ets, they outlasted the garment,
no matter how good and strong
it was.
The folks said it would never
do to make our garments out of
that tough cloth, for we’d hang
ourselves for sure. Viet hung on
a snag with it, and you’d stay
there. Wouldn’t tear like normal
cloth, and let you locjse.
Yes, pockets, pockets! They
meant much to us kids. And
no adult can advise a boy about
what to discard from them.That
is, unless fe^is memory is good and
he can still see values through a
boy’s eyes.
