Reds Announce Offer
OF Increased Aid 10
Friendly Nations
American Help to Europe
Denounced in Press as
Mask for Subjueotion
By Eddy Gilmore
ocioted Press Foreign Correspondent


MOSCOW, June 9.-Russia is
ready to increase economic aid
to nations which have friendly
relations with her, the Moscow
press announced today.
IzveStia, the government news
paper, and Pravda, organ of the
Communist Party, made the an
nouncement in editorials hailing
MoscoW's reduction (by so per cent?
of reparations due from Finland,
Romania and Hungary as far
reaching diplomatic move.
At the same time, Izvestia de-
nounced American aid in Europe as
a mask for economic subjugation.
Moreover. Izvestia said Russia now
is out to catch up with the United
States in per capita production, and
thus hopes to surpass America be-
cause of her larger population.
New Approach to Reparations.
THE immense results in economic
reconstruction attained by the
Soviet Union in the postwar years
have permitted the U. S. S. R. to
bring a new approach to the ques-
ton of reparations payments which,
according to the peace treaties, such
nations as Hungary, Romanla and
Findland must pay Izvestia said.
Successes in the fulfillment of the
five-year plan after the war have
made the Soviet Union, economl-
cally. incomparably more powerful
than it was three or four years ago
when the armistice and reparations
agreements we're concluded with
Romania, Hungary and Finland"
The reductions of reparationS, said
the newspaper, were important "as
"a manifestation of the Soviet
Unions readiness to contribute to
the economic rehabilitation and de-
velopment of friendly countries"
Changes in Policy Cited.
at also illustrates those great
postwar changes which took place
in the countries that during the
war fought side by side with Ger
many and those radical changes
toward friendship and cooperation
which occurred in the relations be-
tween these countries and the So
Wet Union.
The radical changes in the do
mestic and foreign policy of Hun
gary and Romania, as well as Fin
land, have enabled the Soviet Union
to reconsider their reparations OBJ
legations.
This act will undoubtedly con-
tribute to further promotion OF
friendly relations between the So
Wet Union and the small European
countries which, since the war. have
taken the path of independent dem
ocratic government" c"Independ-
end democratic government" is
Russian term for communism)

President Demands
Defeat Of Congress
In Spokane Talks
Also Tells Reporter 1t
Is Worst One Since
First Was Elected
By Joseph A. Fox
Stor Stoff Correspondent

SPOKANE, Wash, June o.
President Truman today dis
PEELED any lingering doubts about
the political aspects of his West
ern tour when he called fatty
for the overthrow of the Repub-
lican-controlled Congress.
He urged that this Congress be
turned on in two speeches-one un.
scheduled and the other on his an
nounced program-but he went ever
further in answering this question OF
a reporter who met his special train
when it arrived here.
This is the worst Congress we
have had since the first one met,
Mr.. Truman told the newspaperman
His first attack was made in the
unseheduled appearance before the
national convention of the Commun.
ications Workers of America, an in
dependent labor union.
Went AWOL to Speak.
"You know I am running on q
schedule" he said. And this is
run in on that schedule, and I am
AWoL, and nobody knows anything
about it but YOU
The President said he understood
that, you are not very happy over
the labor act of 1948 as it is now in
effect. But you know the reason
for that is that in November, 1916
just one third of the population
voted. The people were not inter-
ested in what might happen to them
We have that law now, and I an
the President. I have to enforce it.
Your only remedy is November
1948, and if you continue that Law
in effect, that is your fault and no
mine, because I didn't want it."
Returns to Attack.
Mr.. Truman went directly from
the telephone workers convention
to make his scheduled talk a
a civic celebration in Monahal
Square. There he returned to tn
attack, telling the crowd that the
deserved a continuance of the pres
ent Congress If they failed to &C
in November.
The President came to Spokan
today after he was given a terrifi
reception in Butte, Mont, last night
But when his train left there, an
other ruckus of State Democrat
leaders was left behind.

Senators 10 Confer
with House on Plan
For Summer Session
Taft Committee Fovors
Returning Either Between
Or After Conventions

A politics-packed return ses-
sion of Congress, either between
or following the national politi-
cal conventions, is shaping up
as a strong possibility.
The Senate Republican Policy
Committee seriously doubts" that
the heavy calendar of bills can be
handled in time to recess June 10,
the hoped-for adjournment date.
Senator Taft of Ohio, the Repub-
lican presidential candidate who
heads the committee, disclosed this
Yesterday after committee meet
ing.
He said the Senate leaders, or at
least a majority of them, favor re-
turning in the two-week period be-
tween the two conventions. This
assumed the Republican convention,
which begins June 81 at Philadel-
phia. will not be overly long
The Democratic convention begins
July IL.
But Speaker Martin, who has been
mentioned as Republican presi-
Dental candidate, said he would
prefer to return around August l
after the conventions, if Congress
can't finish up a week from Sat-
urday.
House Minority Leader Halleck
said he sees no reason why Congress
cannot adjourn as originally
planned. He told the House today:
"We can very well conclude the
consideration of all measures that
we ought to do and that we can
afford to do"
Plans Conference With House.
Senator Taft said Policy Com
mittee leaders would discuss the
adjournment situation with House
leaders and report back to the Sem
ate Republican Conference. The
conference, a gathering of all Re-
publicans in the upper house, is

meeting. Senator Taft said, eve

Republicans apparently were not
too happy over the prospects Of
returning. One House leader, Chair.
man Allen of the Rules Committee
said well be here until October
and "spend billions more" if Con-
gress returns. Representative Brown
the Ohio Republican who leads the
Taft forces in the House, said he
didn't see any need to return.
But the Senate Republican policy
group. in its tWo-hour luncheon
meeting, decided it could give the
right of way to only three measures
to follow the draft bill, now under
consideration. The measures, in the
order of planned consideration, are
the Vandenberg resolution to
