Brewster Says British
Sterling May Force
u. ). Dollar Bloc
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The sterling bloc in the British
Empire will have to be liquidated
or this country will have to organize
a dollar bloc" to fight it, Senator
Brewster, Republican, of Maine, said
last night.
Participating in an NBC round
table broadcast on foreign trade, the
Maine Senator said. however, that:
We've got to recognize that the
British can't move away from the
sterling bloc and the imperial pref
erence system toward freer trade
unless they are liberated from their
huge debt to the sterling bloc coun-
tries. I think we've got to help
Britain get out of the mess she's in"
DR.. Amos Taylor, director of the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce. said Britain's debt to the
sterling block countries was esti-
mated at SIS, 900 900 900, and that the
only way she could begin to pay it
off would be by keeping those coun-
tries within the sterling group.
Although saying he knew he had
been considered anti British, Sem
ator Brewster declared his real OBJ
Jective lis to reach fair under
standing with the British"
I'm perfectly willing to sit in on
an international poker game with
the British, or any one else. But I
don't want any cards up their sleeve.
/ want to make sure that we get
fair deal, if we help other countries
to get back on their feet"
He said the sterling bloc will
have to be liquidated "or we will
have to organize a dollar bloc to
fight it. That would mean a trade
war, which would be disastrous to
the British-and it wouldn't help
us either. The constructive thing
to do will be for the United States
to help Britain to scale down and
reflnance her debt, in return for
which she would agree to abandon
the sterling bloc and imperial pref
erence and other practices that in
terfere with international trade"

publish monthly magazine until a
special five-man committee COM

Although the proposal already has
been the subject of detailed report
by special three-man committee
headed by Clifford H. Newell, dele
gate for the Arkansas Avenue Com
munity Association, the federation
passed motion by Harry S. Wender
delegate for the Southwest Citizens
Association and a past president of
the Federation, to name a second

Mr.. Wender said there are in the

project since last winter, has been

its 70 member associations for six
weeks. Last nights meeting was
called to discuss the report.
The report sets forth cost and

The new committee, in addition
to delving further into these and
other aspects of the proposal, will

A motion by Mr.. Newell early in
the meeting that the report of his

Quick Action 10 Fix
Atomic Bomb Policy
Mapped in Senate
Es the Associated Pre- SIS.

The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee will rush to the floor
this week legislation designed to
give Congress a voice in fixing
atomic bomb policies.
Chairman Connally said yesterday
he may call the committee tomor-
row afternoon or Tuesday to act on
bill by Senator Vandenberg, Re-
publican, of Michigan.
The Vandenberg measure, al
ready given nod of approval by
President Truman, would set up a
joint Senate-House committee with
exclusive Jurisdiction over all
measures dealing with the develop
ment, control and future use of
nuclear energy.
12-Member Committee Planned.
The plan, as Senators have out
lined it, is to name a responsible"
group Of six Senate and six House
members who would act originally
for Congress in matter that
threatens to provoke wide con-
tpversy.
The crux of this controversy is:
Shall the United States, Great
Britain and Canada share with
Russia and other United Nations
the secret of the atomic bomb?
Mr.. Truman discussed this matter
at length with the cabinet Friday.
Interested persons said no decision
was reached.
There were reports that Secre-
tary of Commerce Wallace sided
with those who want Russia cut in
on the secret now. The Army and
Navy apparently fail to share Mr..
Wallace's enthusiasm for any such
move now.
Mr.. Truman repeatedly has made
itplain to Senators that he hasn't
made up his mind ON this issue.
Chairman Connally, Senators Van
denberg and Lucas, Democrat, of
Illinois, came away from a White
House conference last week with
the impression that the President
wants Congress to have its say in
the matter, too.
Opinions Sharply Divided.
Senator Connally told reporters
he thought Congress, as a repre-
sentative of the people, must share
in the shaping of future policies.
He added that there is a sharp di-
vision of opinion as to whether the
secret of the bomb should be given
to any other nation.
When the committee approves the
Vandenberg resolution, as members
expect it to do. Majority Leader
Barley will be on something OF a
spot.
The Military Affairs Committee
already has sent to the Senate a
resolution which would set up an
11-member committee, including
four from Congress, to control the
development and use of atomic
energy
Chairman Thomas of Utah ex-
poets to push this measure. Sena-
tor Barley, a member of For
eign Relations and not of Military
Affairs, must decide which of the
bills come I'D first,
