Europeans Puzzled,
But Not Surprised
|By Marshall Plan Cuts
Ry the Assoeio,ed Press

LONDON, June 5.-Europe was
puzzled tonight over the House of
Representatives cuts in Marshall
plan aid. There also were express
sions of indifference to the slash
in European recovery program
funds.
However, a continent that has
known hardships and disappoint-
ments for years showed little sur
prise at the turn of events. 1t still
was hopeful Of receiving outside
aid.
Italian newspapers, while not
commenting on the cuts, empha-
sized in headlines that Secretary of
State Marshall had warned against
such q reduction.
Germans said they were puzzled
by the congressional procedure.
They asked:
"How is it possible for the Ap-
preparations Committee to reduce
the amount of aid which was de-
clared absolutely necessary to tide
Europe over after ERP was accept
ed In the form submitted by Presi-
dent Truman?"
Currency Worries Germans.
The German man in the street
appeared more concerned about the
current currency reform than Mar
shall Plan reductions.
A member, of the Belgian ERP
administration said "the giver can
put any conditions to his gift and
reduce it as he wants"
Then he added: Belgium mainly
hopes Marshall Plan aid will i'm
prove its neighbors' economic situa-
ton. Belgium itself is not depend
ing on the Importance of the aid
received"
One Rightist newspaper said:
The Marshall Plan was hardly put
into effect when its very existence is
threatened. The European Recov-
cry Program is as useful as the
United States defense program. To
sacrifice ERP may seriously preju-
dice the efficiency of the defense
program"
Viennese Papers Comment.
Viennese papers gave devoted
front-page headlines to the cuts,
The British-sponsored Weltpresse
said the house action must be re-
garded in connection with the presi-
Dental campaign and added:
In the long list of blunders COM
mitted by the House of Represen-
tatives in the field of foreign policy
this must be considered another
stroke"

Europe played up the House re-
ductions in their headlines.

0'Conor Would Give Public
More Atomic Information
By the Assoeiofed Press

Senator O'Conor, Democrat, OF
Maryland declared yesterday that
the American people must be given
more information about the peace
full uses of atomic energy.
He disclosed that he has been
meeting with Chairman David E
Lilienthal of the Atomic Energy
Commission to develop procedures
for broader dissemination cf in
formation to the people.
THE reaction of so many people
to atomic energy is simply fear OF
the destructive possibilities of the
atomic bomb" Senator O'Conor
said in statement. THE extra
ordinary possibility of this new type
of energy must be gotten over To
the people so that there will be a
more complete understanding of the
favorable as we'll as the unfavorable
aspects of atomic energy"
Senator O'Conor said the COM
mission favors a wide discussion OF
the subject, consistent with security,
and believes it should be carried on
principally by established educa-
tional groups.

Nicaragua, the rainfall is as much

to the present. If they have oc-
cupied a certain convent. it was only
to defend the Holy City against the
Jewish attackers who tried to pene-
trate and spread death and con-
fusion.
If the Arabs shelled Notre Dame
de France and the convent of the
Reparatrice Sisters-which the Jews
have themselves destroyed and
burned-it was to return fire against
their foe, who from these buildings
fired on them and on the Holy
City. The Jews have turned these
converts and hospitals, as well as
their synagogues and the Hebrew
University, into military bases from
where they attacked the Holy City
for the purpose of occupying it and
with the announced purpose to
plunder it as they had done in
Haifa, Tiberias and Jaffa.
Our protests to the French, Bel
gian and American consuls, who
form the consular truce committee
appointed by the Security Council,
as well as to representatives of the
International Red Gross, failed to

boost the amount.
Senator Dworshak, Republican, OF
Idaho, an appropriation member
who voted against the foreign aid
authorization bill, said he thinks
any cuts that are justified should
stand.
Excessive aid is likely to dis
courage rather than encourage the
recipients" he told reporter.
Senator Revercon1b, Republican,
of West Virginia said he has high
confidence in what the House has
done"
Certainly" he said, I'VE should
not spend more than a review OF

my part, I always doubted the wis
dom of these great expenditures y
In giving voice vote approval Of
the bill Friday, the House cut the
actual cash requests $533.0O0, 900.
But because 1t acted to spread the
program over IS instead OF IL
months, Chairman Taber of the
House Appropriations Committee
estimated the effective reduction at
$1,000, 900 600 or more.
The House added two amend
ments which seemed likely to face
attack in the Senate. One of
these would order $65, 100000 spent
to buy dried skim milk as part of
the program. The other would
limit to s5O,00O00O the purchases of
farm machinery for shipment
abroad.
Western Europe's Communist press
made hay out of the House action.

cation headlined: European aid cut

propriations Committee and warn

Limiting immigration
Would Be Severe Blow
To Truce, Jews Say
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

LAKE SUCCESS, June 5.-AnI
Israeli spokesman said today any
effort to limit Jewish immigration
would be a serious blow to the pro-
posed Palestine cease-flre.
The new Israeli statement stressed
once more the delicate nature OF
the cease-fire negotiations and in
dicated that the immigration issue
might wreck the entire project.
Count Folke Bernadotte, United
Nations mediator, informed the
Security Council last night that the
immigration question alone was OBJ
structing agreement on a truce date.
Cenfers With Lebanese.
The mediator conferred in Beirut
tonight with Lebanese officials on
the proposed four-week truce in
Palestine. He is expected to confer
with Jewish leaders either in Haifa
or Tel Aviv before returning to Cairo
tomorrow.
Count Bernadotte asked the Coun-
Gil for guidance in Interpreting the
ceasefire resolution of May 20. Faris
ell Khoury of Syria, Council presi-
dent for June, replied the Council
had authorized the mediator to make
his own interpretations of the reso-
luton.
In q telegram to Count Berna-
dotte, the Council president said
it was his personal view that neither
Arabs nor Jws should gain any
military advantage from the terms
of the proposed truce. He also
said the terms should not prejudice
the legal rights of either party.
The Israeli spokesman expressed
surprise that Count Bernadotte had
asked for Interpretation of the i'm
migration clauses.
"T1he language and the intent OF
the resolution are clear" the state
ment said. 1.-The original British
proposal for a ban on men OF mill
tary age was rejected by the Secu-
rity Council and the resolution as
adopted expressly permits men OF
military age to enter Israel freely,
provided they are not mobilized or
trained during the four weeks Pc
I Rod (of the armistice).
Israel has accepted this. II the
Arabs do not accept it they are re-
jecting the resolution and must bear
all the consequences. This is cru
cial ISSUE
Confers on Communications.
It was disclosed, that Mr.. Ell
Khoury conferred this forenoon
with top U. N. officials on communl-
cations delays between here and
Count Bernadottes Cairo headquar-
tiers. Mr.. Ell Khoury was under
stood to have been somewhat an
noyed when he learned that the
mediator still had received no Off
cial word last night on a Council
decision taken Thursday afternoon.
There was a slight furry at U. N.
headquarters over Herbert Bayard
Swope's letter to the New York
Times suggesting that Mr.. Ell
Khoury should step down as presi-
dent of the Security Council be-
cause Of his special interest in the
Palestine controversy as an Arab
leader.
The only public notice of the
Swope letter. however, came from
the Israeli spokesman who said he
was "astonished" that Mr.. Ell
Khoury had not voluntarily sur
rendered the chair.

Graduates Will Find
Jobs Easily, Head Of
Labor Statistics Says

June graduates from both high
schools and colleges should have
no particular trouble finding the
jobs they want-except In a few
fields-the Labor Departments Bu-
reau Of Labor Statistics said yester-
dav.
Those graduates who are plan-
ming to get jobs right away instead
of continuing their education are
coming out into q favorable labor
market" Evan Clague, commissioner
of labor statistics, commented.
He explained that employment Is
at an ali time spring high and is ex-
pected to go still higher this summer.
The June graduates not only are
reasonably sure of getting jobs. but
are likely to have a good deal Of
choice, he added.
Standards Set Higher.
Employers. however, are demand
ing somewhat higher qualifications
than during and Immediately after
the war, Mr.. Clague warned.
The report of the bureau showed
that the country's greatest need is
for engineers, chemists, physicians.
dentists, pharmacists. nurses, social
workers, librarians and specialists In
various fields of science. Teaching,
the Nations largest profession with
about 100000 employed, will offer
opportunities for thousands.
All of these jobs require college
training
In the next few years, however,
graduates in some fields are going
to flnd it tough to get jobs. This
will result from the record college
enrolment of more than 2,500,OO0
students.
Opportunities in Skilled Trades.
Engineers are going to be plenti-
ful within few years as we'll a.
chemists, lawyers and pharmacists.
High school graduates going to
work Immediately will find their
best opportunities in industrial oc-
cupations. The well-established
field such as building, railroads and
metal trades will offer the best Jobs.
Opportunities to enter the skilled
trades also are good at present.
Clerical and sales occupations are
another important source OF Jobs
for high school graduates.
