Senate Unit Meets Today
On Revised Dispersal Bill

The Senate Public Works Com
mittee was scheduled to act on
the Governments revised dispersal
bill today and there were expec-
tations the measure would be
reported to the Senate this after

The revised bill and subcom-

It provides for buildings on four

our situation is different from
Belgium's."
The Dutch are inclined to be q
little sensitive-and q little de-
fensive-about the unquestionable
fact that, as matters stand today,
their military effort has not pre-
duced results equal to those Of
Belgium--a neighboring country
of almost exactly the same popu-
lation.
This defensive attitude has been
steamed up by a report (which
leaked into the press) that Gen.
Eisenhower expressed disappoint-
ment over Dutch military plans
at the time of his recent visit.
The report seems to be true
enough. But less attention has
been given to the fact that since
that time the Dutch military pro-
gram has been amplified consid-
erably.
It's hard for Americans to un-
derstand why the Dutch military
situation should be so different
from that of Belgium. In fact,
we're more or less accustomed to
link the two countries together In
our casual thinking. But let's
consider few hard facts.
Ranked Once as Great Power.
First, Holland is a very old
member of the family Of inde-
pendent states: indeed, it ranked
once as q great power. Belgium's S
independence Is little more than
a century old. Traditionally. the
Dutch are perhaps more firmly
welded to the idea that the civil
authority should control the mill
tary than any other people in
the world.
We and the British have that
tradition, too. but in practice we
both allow our military people
much more freedom Of action
than comes natural to the Dutch.
Moreover, they have an inbred
dislike of standing armies. Both
these conceptions come down to
them from the days when the
troops of Philip II Of Spain were
quartered In Dutch towns, and 30
conducted themselves that the
Dutch have never forgotten. In
consequence. the Dutch had no
regular army right up to World
