Taft Says Congress
Considered Brannan
Political Secretary
by the Asseeioted Press

Senator Taft. Republican, of
Ohio, said today that Congress
views Secretary Brannan as a
very political Secretary of Agri-
culture"
He made this observation in re-
viewing the Senate's rejection of
President Truman's Agriculture
Department reorganization plan
last May 18 by a voice vote after
no one arose to defend it.
Senator Taft said in his weekly
column mailed to Ohio newspapers
that the plan was rejected because
it did not follow out recommended
tions Of the reorganization com
mission headed by former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover.
Instead. he said, the Presidents
plan granted wide discretionary
powers to Mr.. Brannan to reor-
ganize as he saw fit.
Mr.. Brannan has been at odds
with many Congress members of
both parties over his plan to pay
farmers with Federal funds the
difference between market prices
and what the Government con-
siders fair price.
The agriculture plan was one
of five rejected by the Senate of
the 81 sent to Congress last March
by Mr.. Truman,

6 Nations Await Word
From Britain on Pact
To Pool Coal Steel
RY the ASsoeiatsd Press

PARIS, May 31.-Six European
nations today were ready to pool
their coal and steel industries but
Britain maintained a wait and
see" attitude toward French For
eign Minister Robert Schuman's
economic union plan.
The French Foreign Office an
nounced Belgium, Luxembourg,
Italy, the Netherlands, West Ger
many and France had agreed to
set up an international authority
to administer their coal and steel
production.
The six nations will meet next
month to work out the pool ar
rangement and put it into effect.
British sources in London said
their country was anxious to join
in the talks but had refused fatty
a French invitation to approve
the French plan before the talks
start.
Fear Binding Commitment.
The British, these sources said,
felt they had been asked to give
binding commitment before
learning how the merger would
affect their industries.
Mr.. Schuman at once dispatched
new memorandum to London,
designed to clear up what officials
said was British misunderstand-
ing of the original French invita-
ton.
The French sources said the new
note emphasized that British in
dorsement of the plan "in prin-
ciple" would not bind Britain to
approve the results of the future
discussions.
Common Goal Stressed.
The six countries who have ac-
cepted the plan, a French spokes-
man said, have agreed to come
to a meeting with the precon-
ceived idea Of making a plan
work" He added:
Their interest is to put their
shoulders together for the COM
mon good. We hope that other
nations will join in the same
effort"
In London a British source had
a different version of the original
French proposal. He said Britain
had been asked to agree, in ad-
vance of the conference on de-
tails, to pool her coal and steel,
to submit to an all-powerful in
ternational authority controlling
these industries, and to agree to
further talks on the basis of these
essential commitments"
Mr.. Schuman proposed his plan
for an international authority to
administer Europe's coal and steel
output on May 8. He said the
pool was designed to lower pro-
duction costs, equalize cost factors
In all countries, modernize pro-
duction facilities, and expand
markets for European industries.
