Administration Stand
Against Il Billion Aid
For China Expected
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

A new $1,500,O00, 900. aid-for-
China proposal, supported by so
Senators. today ran into the pros
pect of administration opposition.
The State Departments present
policy, as indicated by Secretary
Acheson, is to let the dust settle
further in China before deciding
whether to provide the National
lists with any major American
backing against the Communists.
The amount proposed by Sem
ator McCarran, Democrat, of Ne
vada yesterday is nearly triple
what President Truman asked
Congress to approve 13 months
ago when the Nationalists' chances
for victory appeared promising.
Diplomatic authorities say that
now, with the Communists over
running all of North China,
months may pass before it is clear
whether a Nationalist government
will survive to receive aid.
In his China program last year,

mfr. Truman asked $4,000, 900,
all for economic aid. Congress
trimed this to $275.000, 900 for eco
nomic purposes, plus $125,000, 900
for arms. Virtually all that will
be gone when the current legisla-
ton expires April 5.
Mr.. Acheson is reported to have
stated the wait-and-see policy at
a closed meeting last month with
House Republicans who favor new
assistance.
Senator McCarran's bill would
provide up to $1.500,000,000 in
both economic and military aid
through the sale of Export I'm
port Bank Notes. OF this total,
$500, 100000 would be in credits
to the Government. 100000. 900
in economic assistance and $780,
10000 for military supplies.
In letter to Chairman Con-
nally of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, Senator McCar-
ran contended it is up to Con-
gress. in the final analysis, to
shape this country's policies.
He said the matter is not one
on which Congress must await
some request from the executive
branch of the Government before
it can proceed"

BY the Assoeioied Press

FARGO. N. Dak., Feb. 21.-Don
Beaton is one former CT who Is
making good that wartime promise
to buddies-"I'Il be seeing you"
With his wife. the Fargo soldier
who lost his left leg in action in
France. is embarking on a $500
mile vacation. Along the holiday
trail he plans to visit nine other
men who got their discharges
from the amputee ward of the
McC cCloskey Army General Hospital
at Temple, Tex.
The Beatons are making their
first stop at Mankato, Minn., to
visit Bruce Mattson, whose loss of
a leg doesn't hamper his handling
of a rural mail route.
The second stop will be to see
Tom Steensland at Austin, where
he's doing advertising work for a
radio station. Mr.. Steensland is
the patient, who fell in love with
and married the nurse from the
"Amputee Club"-Ward 119-A at
McC cCloskey, Mr.. Beaton reports.

Next on the route will be Chi

a handshake with James Flowers,

They are Tom Prather of Aus
