Asks Passage
OF Bill Authorizing
Foreign Broadcasis
Program Vital to Conduct
Of Foreign Policy, Official
Tells House Hearing
BY Gornett D. Horner

Undersecretary OF State Ache
son today urged speedy enact
ment by Congress of a bill
formally authorizing the State
Departments international in
formation and cultural affairs
program, which he termede of
vital Importance" in the con-
duct of foreign policy.
Mr.. Acheson was the first witness
at hearings by House Foreign At
fairs Subcommittee on a bill by
Representative Mundt, Republican,
Of South Dakota to give specific
legal authority to the program and
authorize expenditures Of $10,000,-
600 year.
Lack of such formal sanction by
Congress was cited by the House
Appropriations Committee last week
as one Of Its reasons for recon-
mending that no money be appro-
priated to finance the State Depart
ment's Office Of international
Information and Cultural Affairs
activities after June 30. The State
Department had requested $751;
381 200.
The department set up the Office
during the war. It's program in
cludes international broadcasts, in
cluding a Voice of America program
beanaed to Russia.
Taber Lists Main Points.
The measure before the Foreign
Affairs Committee would simply au.
thorize such activities. The matter
of an appropriation to finance then
still would have to go through the
Appropriations Committee.
While Mr.. Acheson was testifying
Chairman Taber of the Appropria-
tions Committee discussed the issue
at a news conference.
These were his main points:
/. He indicated willingness to
approve a 5000, 900 or $4,000, ,00t
program "if its cleaned up and
they get rid Of tho incompetents.s
q He would not agree to including
any money for the program in the
general State Department appro-
priation bill which came up on the
House floor today. Separate legis-
lation such as is before the Foreign
Affairs Committee will have to be
passed, he said, before he will agree
to any appropriation
Mr.. Acheson declared 1t has be-
come more and more important In
the last few years that the United

By Robert K. Welsh

Secretary of War Patterson
testified in District Court today
that former Representative An
drew j. May called him at least
three times from 1943 to 1945 in
behalf of companies affiliated
with the $7S, ,00o, 900 Carson mu-
nitions combine.
The Secretary of War was the
first witness this morning in the
trial of May, Henry and Murray
Carson, and Joseph r. Freeman,
Carson Washington agent, on war
fraud conspiracy charges. Two of
Secretary Patterson's top aides, Un-
dersecretary Kenneth C. Royal, and
Assistant Secretary Howard C. Pet
erson also told the jury yesterday of
having received complaints or re-
quests from May on several occa-
sions In behalf OF 1.-THE Garssons.
Secretary Patterson declared May
telephoned him March !, 1943, about
a cutback ordered by !. the War
Department ON a truck contract
held by the Batavia Metal Products,
Inc, an Illinois Company in the
Carson chain.
About two years later May phoned
him to urge that the Batavia COM
pany be given the Arny-Navy 'eE''
Award, Mr.. Patterson recalled.
Called to Mays Office.
In September, 1945, Secretary
Patterson continued, May tele-
phoned him and asked him to 60
to Mays office at the House Office
Building because May was very busy
with important matters and couldn't
get away" At that time Mr.. Patter-
son was Undersecretary of War and
May was chairman of the House
Military Affairs Committee.
The witness said that when he ar
rived at Mays Office he was intro
duced to two men, who, May ex-
planned, were officers of the Erie
Basin Metal Products, Inc, another
Illinois affiliate of the Carson or
ganization.
7 cannot recall who the two men
were," Secretary Patterson said.
The two men. complained of a
freeze order which the War Depart
ment had put on funds of their
company. They complained that it
was interfering with their transition
from war to peace. They also said
they thought the freeze order was
unjust"
Interceded for Capt. Carson.
After. Secretary Pattersons testi-
mony, the Government succeeded
in introducing two letters sent by
May to Gen. Eisenhower, Supreme
Allied Commander in Europe, inter!
ceding for the court son
of Murray Carson in April and May
1945.
In these letters, May wrote that
he was confident that Gen. Eisen-
hover, after investigating all the
circumstances, would make a final
report completely exonerating Capt
Carson of any wrongs or lack OF
proper military discipline"
II am confident that when all the
facts are disclosed" May wrote to
Gen. Eisenhower, you will feel like

1. n. Committee
Defeats Reds on
Free Palestine
Inquiry Group Given
Free Hand in Spite Of
Arob WoIkout Threut
By II. Assoeiatsd Press

+
LAKE SUCCESS, N. z, May IS.
Despite a threatened Arab
walkout, the Political COMMITTEES
of the United Nations Assembly
today defeated q Soviet move to
have a U. N. Palestine inquiry
commission draft proposals for
immediate independence of the
Holy Land
The vote was rs against the RUS
sian measure, is in favor, with II
abstentions and absences.
This meant that the Inquiry COM
mission would be. given a free hand
to consider all possible solutions of
the Palestine paablem without any
special reference to the independence
question.
Arabs Consider Walkout.
The vote came after Faris el
Khoury, Syrian delegate, said outs
side the chamber that the Arab
delegations were considering the
possibility of walking out of the spe-
cial Assembly in protest against a
majority stand on the Palestine
question.
Mr.. El Khoury, a leading spokes-
man for the five Arab states in the
U. N, told newsrnen that If the pres
ent trend in the deliberation of the
Political Committee continued, the
Arabs would adopt a policy OF snon-
cooperation" with the work Of the
proposed inquiry commission. He
said the Arab delegates might zen
leave the Assembly.
Final Decision Not Made.
Mr.. Ell Khoury specified that IS
eventually was in the process I
formulation and that the five A b
countries had not yet made Il
final decision.
The Arab delegations caused b.
concern when they were not in q
chamber as the Political Committ
resumed debate at 11:15 am.
The Egyptian delegation, hov
ever, entered four minutes later and
was followed by Syria. Iraq, Saud
Arabia and Lebanon. which was q
minutes late.
Mr.. El Khoury said the Arab
were insisting on two points:
/. At least q mention Of the word
independence" in the instructions
to be given the inquiry commission.
2. Reference to the United Ma
tions Charter in those instructions.
Arab Requests Refused.
He said the only link binding the
Arab states here to the other states,
such as Guatemala or Iceland, was
the United Nations Charter. Mr.. Ell
Khoury said the Political Commit
tee so far had refused Arab requests
that the instructions mention the
u. N. Charter and that the Arabs
felt this essential.
The Syrian delegate appeared
pessimiStic as to the outcome of the
fight the Arabs have made to get
some reference to the independence
in the Political Committees instruc-
tionS.
Asked directly If the Arab states
would walk out on the special Pales-
tine session if the Assembly finally
decides against them, he said that
was distinct possibility.
Disposition Of the Russian pro-
posal brings the committee to
the last controversial issue of the
special session on Palestine-com-
position Of the inquiry commission.
Here again Russia and the western
powers were expected to clash head
on.
Wearied by days Of debate and
discussion, many delegates believed
they stood q good chance Of ending
the work of the special Assembly
session this week.

WHITEVILLE, Sept. -
Maintaining a pace which has
of last year, Whitesville Post
kept receipts running ahead OF

flee reported $3,126.68 for the
month of August.
In July and August Assistant
Postmaster Arthur C. Meares re-
ported total receipts of $6994.05
against $6,259.57.
Whiteville citizens are keeping

maintain the first class status
which the office obtained nearly
two years ago. The office has
been operating as first class for
the past IA months.
The receipts fer the first eight
months of the calendar year show

to maintain an average of ap-
proximately $4,000 monthly tc

AS of Sept. 1, 1916, the Of
flee had receipts of $23,381.72
Thus the office reports a gain

When the Saturday luncheon
was over and they were all
ready for the weekly trip to
town, she was as excited as the
others. AS she and Moran came
down the stairs dressed for

Gail and said, Saturday brings
drink and ructions, and the
farmers are off to town. Here's
your pay, chick. Saturdays
payday, too, you know"
He put three worn paper dol
lars into her hand. Gail looked
at them and then at her father,
amazed.

protested.
Charles closed her fingers
over the money and patted her
clenched fist.
"Norah receives the same.
Greg gets S.. Call it spending
money, call it allowance, call
it anything you like-only don't

cheerfully. "We've a sort of

There was no point in argu-
ing, but Gail went out to the
car with the sting of tears in
her eyes. She had only a few
dollars left of the money with
which she had arrived. LISA
had assured her %carelesly, that
once she was with her father
he would provide her with LISA
called "an adequate al

that, Gail smothered a small,
slightly hysterical giggle at the
thought of what LISA would say
about 50 for a week of grueling
labor.
She had written LISA a week
after her arrival, and had told
her that Charles had lost his
money. She had shaded the pic
ture a little. She had admitted
that the big house had burned;
she had admitted that they
were all living in the old tenant
house; she had not admitted the
lack of electricity and plumb
ing.
There had not yet been time
for an answer to this letter. She
hadn't been quite sure where
LISA would be and the letter
