sumner L. Pike appeared today
to have won important ground in
his uphill fight for a new four
year term on the Atomic Energy
Commission.
Friend and toe alike agreed in
advance of vote set for late this
afternoon that prospects for his
Senate confirmation had bright
ened considerably since week
ago when the odds were running
high against him.
Mr.. Pixies term on the COM
mission expired June 80. At that
time his nomination for a new
term was pending before the Sen
ate with a recommendation from
Senate members of the Congress
sional Atomic Energy Committee
that it be rejected.
Republicans Against.
OF the nine Senators on the
committee. four Republicans and
one Democrat lined up against
the 58-year-old Maine Republic
can. For a time it appeared al
most sure that the Senate would
follow its usual procedure of
going along with the recommen-
dations of a committee on i'm
portant nominations.
The five who voted against Mr..
Pike were Senators Hickenlooper,
Republican, of Iowa; Millikin, Re-
publican, of Colorado; Bricker
publican. of Ohio; Knowland,
Republican, of California, and
johnson, Democrat, of Colorado.
One of the five. asking not to
be identified, said today that un-
less specific charges were devel-
oped against the nominee, he
didn't think many Democrats
would stick their necks out" by
going against the Presidents rec
ommendation. He also predicted
a sizeable Republican vote for
Mr.. Pike.
Competence Questioned.
Chairman Mcmahon of the
Atomic Committee. predicted MIR.
Pixies confirmation by a wide
margin. Other Senators also
forecast Senate approval.
Opponents have made a general
charge that Mr.. Pike is not COM
oetent for the Acc job. Senator
dickenlooper also has accused
lin of opposing development of
he hydrogen bomb.
Mr.. Pike, in turn, has said he is
Wiling to stand on his record. He
'alled Senator Hickenlooper's ac-
:usation a distortion of the
acts. Mr.. Pike said he opposed
he H-bomb at one time but
hanged his mind later, when its
development appeared to be more

Quick House Approval Pixies Chances Gain
Predicted for Aid Bill; For Confirmation as
S.z Billion Provided Senate Support Grows
By the Associated Press

Quick House passage is in pros
pect for the Senate-passed 81 ,222,-
100000 military aid bill to bolster
defenses of the non-Communist
world.
With American arms already in
action in Korea, the House For
eign Affairs Committee meets to-
day to speed the measure toward
the floor SO the House may COM
plete congressional action.
To expedite matters the COM
mittee was expected to discard it's
own version of President Tru-
mans arms aid request and stamp
its approval on the Senate meas
ure.
Staff aides predicted the COM
mittee would send the bill to the
House early this week. Once
there it is slated for speedy action.
Spurred by the Korean c-isis,
the Senate passed the arms bill
by $50 vote on June 80.
Impressive Vote. Seen.
Administration lieutenants look
for almost as impressive a vote in
the house to send the measure to
Mr.. Truman for his signature.
The authorization for second
year military aid to the free ma
tions provides:
81 billion for the North Atlantic
treaty nations of Western Europe:
$131 100000 for Greece, Turkey
and Iran; SIG million for the
Philippines and embattled South
Korea; $75 million for the general
area of China.
The $1.222. 100000 total COM
pares with 1924 100000 voted for
the same purpose last year. The
reduction applies solely to Greece
and Turkey.
Korean Fund Academic.
The amount applicable to Korea
has become more or less academic
in view of actual United States
participation in the Korean fight
ing the past two weeks.
Also information released by the
House Foreign Affairs Committee
shows that South Korea previous
ly had received substantial as
siStance unrelated to the Mutual
Defense Assistance Act.
When it was decided to with
draw United States occupation
forces, the Korean government
was given 10000 japanese rifles
and stocks of ammunition, the
committee report shows.
$56 Million In Goods Left. /
When United States forces ac-
tually Withdrew in July. 1949,
military equipment was left, be-
hind which cost $50 million.
It was estimated that ground
force supplies left behind were
sufficient to equip $4,000 men.
This included about 100000 small
arms, SO million rounds of ammu-
niton, 1000 bazookas and ammu-
milton and about 1900 vehicles of
all types. as well as anti-tank
