Is Closing Dollar Gap
AsU. ). Sales Decline
BY the Assoeioied Press

The Economic Cooperation Ad-
ministration reported optimistic
ally to Congress today on gains in
Western Europe's battle to close
the dollar gap and on efforts to
shore up the economy of Formosa.
The ECA also noted that the
Communist invasion Of South Ko-

economy of the country and cut
short impressive gains" made in
reviving agriculture and industry.
Covers Three Months.
President Truman forwarded
the ECA's quarterly report to Con-
.greSs without comment. 1t covers
the first three months of this year.
ECA expressed enthusiasm in
reporting that Western Europe as
a whole is getting her trade with
the United States more closely in
line and at the same time is re-
opening the pre-war worldwide
trade pattern-a major long range
objective of the Marshall Plan.
1t said. too, the drastic cuts in
United States purchases by West
ern Europe and other countries
have not adversely affected
American business.
Foreign countries began slash
ing their United States purchases.
American business activity at
home jumped, increasing United
States purchases abroad, and a
string of countries followed Brit
aims lead in cutting exchange
rates.
United States sales worldwide
during the first three months of
this year dropped so per cent over
the comparative period year ago.
With Western Europe the decline
was 40 per cent.
The result was that the Marshall
Plan countries sharply cut their
United States trade deficit below
last years rate. Other trading
areas of the world-for the first
time since the end of the war
reported a surplus in trade with
the United States.

the impression that they were

Later Mr.. Bryant said, he and
MIR. Shimon went to a room ad-
joining that of Mr.. DIETRICH and
Mr.. Slack where they installed
wire-tap equipment to the tele-
phone, Of Mr.. Hughes representa-

Detective Bryant said he re-
called one incoming call from Mr..

started to tell either Dietrich or
Slack of his whereabouts in
Washington. but that the other
party on the phone urged Mr..
Hughes not to do so.
Mr.. TAFT, in his testimony. de-

He said that with one exception
all this equipment was merely
loaned to the officer. The one
exception, he said. was the sale
of some accessories, for $3.50, in
1947 or 1948.
Mr.. TAFT said the loaned equip
ment consisted of regular types of
recording machines and explained
that such equipment was adapta-
BILE to a microphone or telephone
hookup.
Such devices for hookups of this
kind. he said, could be easily OBJ

any radio shop.
1t. Shimon is to be called at a
later hearing, probably tomorrow.
At the conclusion of today's hear

Meanwhile. a solid Endorsement
of the inquiry by the Senate SUBJ
committee came from one of its
Republican members, Senator
Darby of Kansas.
In press release intended most
ly for Mid-Western papers, but
also made available here, he sug-
gested that a police department

When this was brought down
to the case Of 1t. Shimon, how

reserving judgment, since he had
not yet heard all sides of this

Senator Darby declared, how
ever:
The practice of overlapping,
I'm sure, is offensive to every good
American. Wire-tapping is an
instrument of the all-powerful
police State to which ! am un-
alterably opposed.
This practice must be stopped

Bi-RaciaI Delegation
OF Church Council 10
Study South Africa
BY the Asseeiated Press

TORONTO, July 15.-The World
Council of Churches has decided
to send delegation of both whites
and Negroes to South Africa to
study the racial problem there.
The decision was reached yes
terday by the policy making Gen.
trail Committee Of the largest in
ternational body Of Protestant and
orthodox faiths. Committee ses-
sions end today.
Sending of a committee to South
Africa depends on an invitation
from the Dutch Reformed Church.
South African delegates have in
dicated a committee for confer
ence and fellowship" would be
welcome, but no church delega-
titon including Negroes has gone
there in recent years. Whether
South African churchmen would
welcome Negroes was not imme-
diately clear.
The committee, in a general
statement, reaf1rmed it's opposi-
ton to violations of human
rights" and to discrimination or
segregation on the ground of race
or color.
In the case of South Africa,
American delegates beat down an
attempt to dodge the issue Of
Negro delegates. South African
and some European delegates in
dicated they wished to avoid it.
Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati,
representing the Protestant Epis-
copal Church and chairman of
the subcommittee on international
affairs which presented the reso-
luton, declared:
American delegates can speak
with authority on the matter of
racial relations and delegates from
other countries can't speak with
any authority at all. The Amer
ican experience in racial matters
is directly relevant to the South
African problem. Bring face to
face the best people of both sides. +"
