France Could Finance
Arms Output Despite
AidCut, U. 5. Believes
By Gornett D. Horner

American officials figured today
that it would cost France only
about $50 million this yea- toI
keep production going on some
$439 million worth of arms orderSl
which the United States has re-
fused to finance.
The French are pressing for
about $625 million in additional
American aid. in the form of off,
shore purchase contracts, to help
finance three-year arms produc-
tion program.
Secretary of State Acheson con-
9irmed yesterday that this Gov
ernment has replied that it canI
commit itself at this time to pro-
viding only about $186 million for
such purposes.
Mr.. Acheson said American as
well as French officials are dis
appointed that no more could be
done. He explained that drastic
cuts by Congress in President
Truman'S request for foreign aid
funds wNl mean stretching out
or slowing up of the whole West
ern military production effort.
Calls Reports Exaggerated.
But the Secretary told news
conference that reports from Paris
about drastic effects of the failure
to get more American aid had
been exaggerated.
Edwin M. Martin, special as
6istant to Mr.. AcheSon for mutual
security affairs, said later that
this Governments action should
not result in any catastrophe con-
sequences for the French.
Paris reports have forecast clos
ing of munitions plants and un-
employment for some Is, 900 work.
ers. Mr.. Martin said that, as an
alternative. the French could di-
vert funds from other parts of
their budget to keep the arms pro-
duction going.
Could Divert Funds.
Oficials estimated that, while
the United States would have to-
commit another $439 million out
of this fiscal years foreign aid ap-i
preparation to finance the con-
tracts France wants it to pick up,
France could avoid cancellation
of the contracts by diverting only
about $50 million in her own
budget.
This is because of different
fiscal practices in the two coun-
tries. Payments for the French
production involved will be spread
over the next three years as the
equipment is delivered. The United
States could contract for such
payments only with money al
ready appropriated. But under
the French budgetary system. ad-
vance commitments can be made
with appropriations necessary only
for the cash outlay required this
year.
Aid Likely Next Year.
While the United States can.
make no commitments beyond
this year. France could reasonably
expect some additional American
aid next year to help carry or
the production.
Mr.. Martin said. too, that the
American commitment to finance
only $186 million of the French
contracts does not mean there is
. firm decision that more may
not be done this year. Later ir
the year. it is likely the United
States will be able to do more off,
shore purchasing in France. he
said. But no promises can be made
now as to how much.
The Associated Press reported
from Paris that French Premier
Antoine Pinay said negotiations
over the arms orders would be
carried to higher level. He did
not explain exactly what he
meant.

Calls Attacks Damaging.
Gen. Pick defended the corps
flood control and rivers and har-
bors work. He answered Congress
sional criticism that costs in
creased over estimates on which
Congress based its authorization
for the projects.
The attacks, Gen. Pick said
shave become damaging to a use
full Federal activity" undermine
public belief in the corps integrity
and reflect adversely on the en-
cheering profession as a whole.
He said the attacks come, on
the one hand, from those whose
philosophy or special Interests
place them in opposition to al
most any form of Federal regula-
ton or participation in water re-
source development"
On the other hand, they also
come from those who want highly
centralized Federal control over
all water resources. The corps, he
said, is caught in the middle.
Gen. Pick conceded there are
disagreements between the engi-
neers land other Federal agen-
cies" over some aspects of water
resources development. He as
serted, however, that the area OF
disagreement is small where the
civil works program is concerned
"These (disagreements) are
due to divergent laws, differences
in basic philosophy and inherent
physical conflicts as to the use of
water" he said.
