United States"
The Republican position was
strengthened late yesterday when
Senator Douglas, Democrat, of Il
linois. who usually supports the
administration, told the Senate
the President should get the "spe-
cific consent" of Congress before
he sends more troops to Europe.
Later Senator Mcfarland said
he had no objection to the Sem
ate voting on the general prin-
ciple of whether we should sup
port the Atlantic Treaty with our
military froces."
Senator Douglas had announced
he would offer a resolution ap-
proving the Brussels agreement
on mutual defense. which pre-
sumably would involve substan-
tial troop commitments. and would
demand a vote on 1t If admins
tration leaders take no action.
George Takes Similar Stand.
Over the week end. Senator
George of Georgia. high-ranking
Democrat on Foreign Relations,
had taken substantially the same
position.
Senator Douglas is not opposing
the dispatch of American troops
to Europe. In fact he proposed
that, under the Brussels agree
ment, each American division sent
abroad be matched by approx
mately 3A European divisions.
He also favored: Raising the
American armed forces to 4.250.-
600 men by June 80 and to 6 mil
lion by December; taking Franco.
Tito and Chang Kai-shek into
the alliance against communism;
blockading the coast Of. Red

In New York last night Senator
Taft joined in denouncing the

one that would only encourage
aggression. He said it would be
only a question of time before
the Communist armies, released
by the cease-f1re in Korea and
the hamstringing Of Chiang's
army, will march on down into

Bates Says His Group
|WiII Seek Economies

Chairman Bates Of the House
appropriations subcommittee in
charge of the Districts new rec
ord-breaking budget declared to-
day his group will search for all
possible economies"
When he found the budget re-
quest calls for an outlay of $136.7
million, or $16.7, million above
current funds, he remarked, isn't
that a little extravaganza"
Would Restore Full Payment.
He and some other members
indorsed the recommendations of
the Commissioners and President
Truman for a restoration of the
Federal payment to the full legis-
lated $12 million level. It was cut
10 per cent. to $10.8 million, last
year.
Representative. Tabor, Republi-
can. of New York, ranking minor
ity member of the House Appro-
priations Committee, who led the
movement to reduce the payment,
said he still believes $10.8 million
is enough.
Bates Backs Commitment.
Mr.. Bates said he never thought
the payment should have been
reduced. Since it is placed at $12
million in basic law, he said, II
think this is a commitment that
we ought to keep"
A similar stand was taken by
Representative Smith, Democrat.
Of Virginia. who heads the fiscal
subcommittee of the House Dis
trict Committee that drafted the
last city tax act.
''The law" he said, calls for
a $12 million payment. When it

Western Europe Amazed,
But AppIouds u. S. Budoet

LONDON, Jan. Is 6P)-ApplauSe
tinged with amazement marked
the reception in Western Europe
today of President Truman's new
budget and its vast outlay for de-
fense.
An official British source told a
news conference:
1T is gratifying and encourag-
ing, but we hope that Britain's S
own contributions in the past, as
well as the rest of Europe, will not
be overshadowed by these aston
ishing figures"
Britain. he went on to say, never
demobilized to the extent that the
United States had, and she had
been forced throughout q period
of belt-tightening to maintain
troops in the Far East which now
help safeguard American interests
as well as her own.
French See Additional Assurance.
A spokesman for the French
Foreign Office called the budget
another assurance, if one were
needed, that the United States is
preparing to defend itself and help
defend the rest of the free world
"It is cheering" the spokesman
told reporters. Ito see that the
President has asked for this huge
amount, because it shows the de-
termination with which the Amer
lean Government is shouldering its
burden Of preparation for all
eventualities."
The liberal Dagens Nyheter OF
Stockholm described the budget
message as the strongest imagin-
able warning to the men in the
Kremlin not to plunge the world
into a new war which would So.
bring the end of their own regime. ~

Foley Backs s. Billion
For Defense Housing
On Standby Basis
BY the Associated Press

The Governments housing chief
urged approval today of a contro-
versial SO billion defense housing
program, although he said only
limited use Of it may be necessary
for the time being.
Raymond M. Foley, housing and
home finance administrator, de-
scribed the proposed program as
largely standby in character"
For the present. he said, credit
curbs on building might be eased
to meet immediate housing needs
in defense areas.
But he told the Senate Banking
Committee that "it would be most
unwise not to establish now the
necessary authority to meet fully,
effectively and promptly" all fore
seeable housing needs arising from
the Nations rearmament drive.
MIR. Foley was the first witness
as the committee started hearings
on the legislation requested by
President Truman. Leaders hope
to have the bill ready for Senate
action early next month.
Some Republican Senators al
ready have criticized it as too
sweeping in it's terms. Senator
Bricker, Republican, of Ohio. has
aSsailed it as preparedness
masked grab for power.
The Government has clamped
curbs on real estate credit to put
brake on inflationary pressures
and to save on materials required
by the defense program.
Mr.. Foley said the power to pro-
vide Federal loans or grants for
community facilities. such as
water lines and schools. probably
would have to be brought into
play fairly early in the growing
defense period"
He explained this was so be-
cause the community facilities in
many cities are inadequate and
"any additional load on them
might well require" Federal aid.

For the Republicans. Represent
atives Martin of Massachusetts
the House floor leader. and Taber
of New York, ranking minority
member of the House Appropria-
tions Committee, issued a joint
statement saying:
"An examination of the budget
shows that his (Mr. Truman's)
entire socialistic program is once
included in the budget despite the
fact that most of it has already
been rejected by the American
people. While a retreat has been
ordered in Korea, the command
is forward march on the Fair
Deal domestic program"
Senator Bridges of New Hamp-
shire, ranking Republican mem
ber of the Senate Appropriations
Committee, told reporters he was
shocked to find that the budget
provides for the Fair Deal under
the guise of defense spending"
Representative Reed of New
York, senior Republican member
of the House Ways and Means
Committee, said the people are
tired "of seeing their tax dollars
regularly spent on hair-brained
socialistic programs that haven't
the remotest connection with mil
itary preparedness"
Among the Democrats. Senator
Mcfarland of Arizona, the new
majority leader, said Mr.. Truman
had made "a substantial effort"
to cut non-defense spending. But
he joined in with others in de-
claring that Congress will under
take to reduce such outlays "as
much as possible"

job" of trying to raise the addi-
tional revenue asked by the
President. But he added:
