North Atlantic treaty and the mu.
tual defense assistance program.
Will Work With Free Nations
We shall continue to work with
the other free nations associated
with us in the common defense
for our defense is theirs, and theil
defense is ours. The united de.
fense of these nations is powerful
deterrent to aggression, and it viii
become more powerful as time
goes by.
| In creating a common defense
we do not seek to impose a way
of life on any nation. Freedom i.
not expanded by conquest. Democ.
racy is not created by dictation
Freedom and democracy grow only
by persuasion and example anc
through the actual experience o1
what they mean.
At the same time, freedom can.
not grow and expand unless it is
protected against the armed i'm
perialism of those who would de-
Stroy it. The free nations, there
fore must maintain military force
as a defensive measure.
While the free nations stand
prepared to resist aggression, they
are doing their utmost to find
peaceful means for settling inter-
national disputes. They know that
another great war could destroy
victor and vanquished alike.
Consequently, we in the United
States are doing and will continue
to do all that lies within our power
to prevent the horror of another
war. We are working for the
reduction of ornaments and the
control of weapons of mass de-
struction.
Atomic Control is Essential.
We are convinced of the neces-
sity for an international agree
ment to limit the use of atomic
energy to peaceful purposes. and
for workable international system
to assure that such an agreement
is effectively carried out. We be-
lieve that the United Nations is
the proper forum in which to reach
such an agreement. We firmly
believe that all nations would gain
by such an international agree
ment. We shall continue to work
honestly and whole -heartedly to-
ward that end. But we must
remember that the outcome is
not ours alone to determine. The
actions of men in other countries
will help to shape the ultimate
decision.
We believe that the plan for
controlling atomic energy which
has been worked out in the United
Nations and has been approved by
the overwhelming majority of its
members. would be effective. That
plan, therefore. has our support.
1t has our support not because
of its form or its words but be-
cause we believe it would achieve
effective control. The stakes are
to large to let us, or any nation,
stand on pride of authorship. We
ask only for a plan that provides
an effective, workable system
anything less would be a sham
agreement. Anything less would
increase, not decrease, the dam

are governments which are work
ing to improve the conditions Of
their people. They know that the
claims of the Communists are not
made in good faith. They do not
want Soviet domination. If these
governments are successful in
raising living standards, and In
building strong and stable demo-
cratic institutions based on pop
ular support, their people will not
go over to communism.
But these governments are
struggling with titanic problems,
as their people attempt to climb
in few years from economic
misery to better standards of liv-
ing. They need help. If these
nations are to grow In freedom,
they urgently need assistance in
improving their health, their edu-
cation. their productive capacity,
their transportation and COM
munication systems.
Purpose Is to Help People.
That is why I have requested
the Congress to act as rapidly as
possible on legislation to expand
our programs for giving technical
assistance to such countries as
these, and to encourage American
investment in those countries on
mutually beneficial basis. We are
mot trying to sell them automo-
biles and television sets. Our
purpose is to help them to grow
more food, to obtain better edu-
cation, and to be more healthy.
That is the way they can gain the
physical and moral strength to be
free and to maintain their own
governments.
AS these nations prove to them
selves and to others the effective
ness of free institutions In meet
ing their peoples needs, they will
show as nothing else can the true
value of democracy and the false
claims of communism.
But the problem Of making
free institutions work is not con-
fined to underdeveloped areas.
The highly developed nations of
Europe came out Of the war with
serious problems of their own.
They were threatened with eco
nomic chaos. Their ability to
maintain freedom and democracy
was challenged.
The purpose Of the European
Recovery Program was to meet
this challenge in the area of the
world where the preservation of
free governments was of supreme
Importance. The results which
have been achieved so far under
that program have amply demon
strated it's wisdom.
ERP Must Be Continued.
With the aid we have provided,
the nations of Europe have already
made great advances in their pro-
duction and have improved their
trading relations with the rest
of the world. Much more must be
done before they reach the firm
basis of economic self-support
which is essential to the main
tenance of free and democratic
governments. Consequently, we
must complete our program of
assistance. 1t would be utter
folly to lose sight of the Importance
Of the European Recovery Pro-
gram. 1t Is essential to our hopes
for peace.
The preservation and strength
ening of free governments depends

Fozio Makes Auspicious Start
As District Area Golf Pro
By MerreII WhittIesey

The Middle Atlantic golf pro-
fessionals, most of whom know
George Fazio only as one of the
Nations top pro golfers. were try
ing to decide today whether FaZio
showed them up yesterday on one
of his good days, or if he's going
to be that much better than this
sections pro crop every time out.
The new Woodmont pro made
his debut as a member Of this
section in the Middle Atlantic
PGA championship at the Elk
ridge course in Baltimore. He
saw the course for the first time
late Thursday when he played
eight practice holes. In a steady
downpour yesterday over the So
hole route, he shot 66-70-136,
six under par. to win $3.50 and a
medal by three strokes.
Fazio, currently the seventh
leading money winner on the PGA
tour, never won a tournament any
easier. He was six under par for
the first IL holes and that word
spread faster than sound. Every
body else was, half scared of him
before the tournament started,
and after that flying start Fazio
was home.
Bassler 3 Strokes Behind.
He played steady, unspectacular
golf for the last "a holes and
coasted home three strokes ahead
of Charlie Bassler, the big hitter
from Rolling Road who was rated
as the best bet to give Fazio run.
Charlie started poorly, played four
holes in five under par late in the
first round. then ran out of gas
in the afternoon just when he
thought he would make a bid.
There were two schools of
thought on the future. Most Of
the pros who know Fazio figure
that he's too much for anybody
In this section except Chandler
Harper .(who didn't play yester-
day). They figure George will
win everything over 18 holes.
Others, mostly Baltimore pros.
believe a steady lesson grind will
lessen his effectiveness. George
isn't going to play too much
around here, but when he does,
his smooth shotmaking and Su-
perior experience give him a de-
cided edge.
Fazio got his big lift on the
third hole when he blasted out of
a steep trap into the cup for an
eagle three. He had seven brides
and an eagle, went over par three
times. twice by three-putting.

so hard to beat Fazio he let his
own game slip at the wrong mo-
ments. Jimmy Duke fired a mag
nif1cent 81 in the morning, de-
spite two balls out of bounds, but
faded to 73 for 140, where he was
tied by Johnny Bass, whose 69-7l
included a four-putt green, and
Jack Isaacs, who had the same
score and didn't make a sizable
putt all day. Duke was making
his foremost bid for a major sec
tional tournament. Bass and
Isaacs both are former champions.
Fazio said he didn't go for
all day." He knew by
from those in front and
behind that he was the leader.
With three holes to play, the rain
pouring and dusk hurrying on.
Fazio needed three pars to win by
two shots, and two of those holes
are tough. He went out and got
tyo pars and a birdie. It was that
easy.

Big Favorite 10 Win
Track Crown Today

The 18th annual Mason-Dixon
track and field championships
apparently had been decided be-
fore the title events actually got
underway at Catholic University
today as a parade of l6 Washing
ton College entries led the field
through yesterdays program Of
nine qualifying events.
The Shoremen were expected to
retain the crown they won last
year with a potential score OF
more than so points, while half
dozen more of the II teams battled
1T out for second place. Catholic
and American University were in
the latter group. although Loyola
or Bridgewater was doped to get
the runner-up spot.
Ken Howard, Washington sprint
star who copped both dashes, and
Milton Hubbard. who led his fields
in the quarter mile run and broad
jump and who also qualified in
the 220. were standouts for the
leaders. But it remained for
Johnny Acton, crack Randolph
Macon hurdler. to make the only
real news of the day. Acton
streaked over the rain soaked
track to a new 120-yard high
hurdles mark of 1872 seconds,
shaving a tenth of a second off
the mark he hung up last year.
Yesterdays doWnpour marred
the program, but times were fairly
good despite the heavy going.
Jim Ferguson of American U.
qualified in both dashes, while
Leslie Rushbrook made the grade
in the broad Jump and Ed Moffatt
led the shot-putters.
Sal Console of Catholic U. took
top rank among the javelin throw
ers with a fairly safe margin of
more than a foot over Moffatt.
But with only Rod Jackson quail
fed in the 440 and Dan Doyle in
the $50. and both in smart fields,
the Cardinals had little to look
forward to today. Russ johnson,
c. us high jump record holder,
also was slated to get into action.

put, while McClelland gave the
