ing fulfilled, the machines, mater- ials or food may continue Co 70 Co the foreign countries provided the latter arrange to pay for them. Tho President is authorized to enter into agreements for payment. Tn connection with this escape clause. which will permit lend-lease cone tract goods to continue flowing outs ward after the armistice, there are a couple of questions:
 1. Will American lend-leaSe offi- cials require foreign nations to limit lheir requests for machines, mater ials and food to minimum needs. Otherwise vast quantities of sup. plies could be contracted for during the one-year extension period to be delivered over a three-year period.
 2. Will agreements for payments for poSt-armistice lend-lease mater. ial be more favorable to the Ameri- can taxpayer or to the foreign purchaser?
 The facts seem to be that under the three-year delivery plan, the military use" amendment does not absolutely foreclose the use of lend- lease materials for postwar relief, rehabilitation or reconstruction. Instead. it provides method by which these goods shall be paid for after the armistice. The intent of Congress is clear that governments obtaining post-armistice lend-lease assistance shall pay a fair price,

Amendment ToLend
 Lease Bill Sought

for deliveries over a period ending June 30, l949.
 Democrats agreed with Republicans some safeguard against too much generosity should be included in the extension bill. The amendment therefore, says that the extension of lend-lease contract authority for one year shall not be construed as giving the president authority to enter into or to carry out any con- tract or agreement with a foreign government for postwar relief, re- mobilization or reconstruction. That is, lend-lease deals to promote de- fense of the United States shall not automatically become postwar re- lief deals when the armistice comes all at the expense of the United States treasury.
 If the amendment stopped there, it's meaning would be clear and simple. But 1t continues immedi- ately with an exception. The excep- ton provides. in effect, that if the European Armistice comes whils the new lend-lease contracts are be-

Washington, March IS. CUP)- This being income tax pay day. 1t 1t appropriate to examine the key sentence in the administration lend-leaSe extension bill passed by the house and now pending in the senate.
 The key sentence runs 135 words These 135 words comprise what is popularly known as the military use amendment. This amendment was designed to prevent the use of lend-lease materials for postwar re- lief, rehabilitation or reconstruc- ton of foreign countries.
 Lend-leaSe materials are sup posed to be used only in promoting the defense of the United States. But unfulflled contract deliveries will continue long after the European armistice. The purpose of the amendment is to protect the American taxpayer against the use of defense materials for other pur- poses.
 By a vote of 354 to 28 the House pdooCO U1lC D1Al do dAlCAlOCO OAlAc week. The lopsided tally suggested that representatives generally have no doubt how the amending sen- tence will be construed or admin istered.
 Many legislators, however, had been fearful that without "mili- tary use" amendment American of- ficials during the next year might commit the United States to give foreign countries vast quantities of our machines, materials and food for delivery after hostilities actually had ceased.
 The lend-lease bill itself provides that contracts for munitions and materials entered into the foreign powers during the 12-months exten- sion period about to be authorized may be in effect actually for three years. That is, a contract drawn be- fore June 30, 1945, could provide

|U s Pipeline
 Plan Dropped

New York, March l5-CUP)-Par- ticipation of the United States gov- ernment in the proposed trans-Arab- ian pipeline project now appears un- likely, the Texas company said to- day in its annual report which showed 1924 net earnings at a seven- year peak.
 The government had agreed to construct and retain ownership of a trunk pipeline system to trans- port crude oil from the Persian gulf area to port on the eastern end of the Mediterranean, the report ex- plained, but added "at the moment the building of this pipeline is held in abeyance and 1t is doubtful that the government will proceed with tnii project as a government owned pipeline"
 However, 1t continued, the Arabian American Oil Company, owned jointly by Texas and Standard oil Company of California, has sent en- glneers and specialists to the mid ale east to make preliminary sur- veys of possible routes and terminal locations and to do certain prelim- mary work in procuring rights-of- way.
 Tt is the intention of this com- pany," the report said, "to procure t he necessary rig h t-of-way as promptly as possible and this line will undoubtedly be built within the next few years as 1t is sound eco- nomically.'
 The Texas Company stated that the importance of the middle east oil fields is becoming more apparent every day and said it is readily con- ceded by outstanding geologists that the concessions in Saudi Arabia owned by Arabian American Oil Company will eventually become one of the important sources of petro- leum in the world"
 Consolidated net income of Texas fer 1914 aggregate $54,516,819 or $4.85 a share, the best since 1887, compared with SAP ,889, ,797 or 3.83 a share in 1943.

Television Network
 Applications Filed

New York, March IS - (UP) - A new coast -to-coast television and broadcasting network emerged to- day from the planning board stage.
 The Raytheon Manufacturing Company announced it had applied to the Federal Communications Commission for permission to build experimental stations on nine vest ern mountain peaks for television and super-high frequency broad casting purposes.
 Since television broadcaSts are ef- fective only within sight vision" or the distance to the horizon from the transmitter, Raytheon plans to link these stations into sky top" networks by means of automatic re- lay stations through the western mountains. Eventually the western system and projected esatern sys- tenn would be joined into a nation wide network. Relay stations in the east would be spaced at 30 to 45 mile intervals.
 In addition to television, Ray theon plans to go extensively into all phases of micro-wave, or super high frequency communications Company officials said one of the first services planned was an auto matic warning for airplane pilots approaching within 300 to 500 miles of one of the mountain top stations. Pictures ashed to pilots even through zero visibility would show natural obstacles and ground con- ditions. Similar service would be available to trains and ships.
 The nine station would extend from Grays Peak in Colorado, north west to Mt. Adams in Washington and southwest to Mt. San Gorgonio in California. Raytheon said that to avoid defacing the mountain sites and also presumably as safeguard against possible air attacks in fu- ture wars, the radio stations would be installed completely underground
