Dulles Says Soviets Won
Asian Propaganda War
BY the Assoeioted Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1s.-
Russia has won the propaganda
war in Asia hands down" by con-
vincing most Asiatic peoples that
Americans are militarists of the
most barbaric kind, John Foster
Dulles, Republican foreign affairs
expert, asserted yesterday.
The cost to the Soviets has
been a bargain-the casualties in
f1icted by United Nations forces
on the North Koreans and Red
Chinese, Mr.. Dulles told the Com
monWealth Club.
Since the Korean war is paying
off so well for the Communists,
there is no particular reason why
they should end it, he said.
The Communists, he added,
"have largely succeeded in per-
Suading the 1000 million people
of Asia that we are not only mill
tarists. but militarists of the most
barbaric kind, waging war by
germs, by liquid fire and other
horrible methods against defense
less communities and women and
children"

ABOARD THE UNITED STATES
AIRCRAFT CARRIER WASP ON
OPERATION MAINBRACE, Sept.
18.-A Norwegian submarine with
81 men aboard was missing for a
while and an American jet plane
crashed yesterday as allied sea-
air maneuvers of Northern Nor
way took a grimly realistic turn.
Two other planes have been lost
and their crews killed since Main
brace began last Saturday.
From the Farce Islands came
word that 60 big Soviet trawlers
which had been anchored there
were heading for the waters off
Southern Norway where the

The 32.o00-ton Wasp sped to
help.
Break in Communications.
While the uproar was at its
height, the Utvaer slipped into an
unnamed Norwegian port, una
ware of the excitement, her fail
ure to answer radio signals had
caused.
The confusion surrounding the
UtVaer indicated a breakdown in
communications-one of the as
poets the maneuvers were testing.
Gale warning had been given in
the area with winds reported up to
SIS miles an hour.
Before the excitement about the
sub began, $50 planes from the
carriers in this fleet roared of to

time cruisers and destroyers bonn
barded Norwegian targets with

'53 District Budget
Awaiting Action at
|Senate-House Farley
Measure Is Advanced
After Restoration of
$12 Million Federal Fund
By Don S. Worren

A liberalized District budget bill
for the year beginning July l.,

ference with the House. .
AS expected, the Senate quickly
passed the recommendations Of its
Appropriations Committee to re-

load of taxes on District residents.
It also gave the same quick ap-
proval to moves by the Senate
committee for restoration of more
than 81 million Of the spending
items the House had chopped out
of the measure.
This brought the total of the
1853 bill to $135,117,089.
The House had cut the bill down
to $131 million, even though the
Commissioners already had dis
carded millions of dollars in re-
quests from their department
chiefs so outlays would be we'll
within resources.
$4,000 Item Added.
| Special attention was attracted
in the Senate to one new item
written into the bill by the District
Subcommittee headed by Senator
Hill, Democrat, of Alabama.
This is an item of $4,000 for
architectural plans for a new In
dustrial Home School for Colored
Children to be built at the District
owned Children's Center tract at

j. 5. Considers
Buying Planes
MadeAbroad
Craft Would Be
Given NATO Nations
Under Aid Program
BY the Associated Press

The United States announced
today it is considering buying air.
planes from European member ma
tions of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization.
The plan would involve use of
United States mutual security
funds to buy planes directly from
European makers. chiefly for use
by European nations-instead of
sending aid in the form of United
States planes.
Ambassador William H. Draper,
special representative in Europe,
said the North Atlantic Council
has been requested to prepare
recommendations for European
production of war planes to help
meet NATO requirements.
That action, he said in a state
ment issued simultaneously here
and in Paris, is based on a provi-
sion of the Mutual Security Act.
He said the act left to the execu-
tive branch of Government the de-
cision on how best to utilize United
States funds for procurement of
military equipment in Europe "to
the advantage of the mutual Sc
curity program"
Slowed by Budget.
Mr.. Draper's announcement of
the contemplated plan to buy
planes in Europe comes at a time
when budget reductions in the
United States had brought about a
lowdoWn in procurement of Ameri-
can-made aircraft.
Mr.. Draper's statement said:
"The decision by the United
States Government on the use of
authorized funds for the purchase
of aircraft in European NATO
countries will be made in the
light of these NATO recommenda-
tions, but the willingness and
ability of other Allied govern
ments to participate with their
own funds in the NATO aircraft
procurement will be- a major fac
tor in United States determina-
ton to proceed.
I'm any case, the United States
will make a final decision only
after a careful evaluation of the
characteristics of European air.
crafts for operational require
I1entS.
"In selecting the types and
quantities of aircraft, the inter-
ests of United States Govern
ment in maintaining it's own do
mestic aircraft industry will be
carefully considered, along with
the need for developing essential
military aircraft production in
Europe"
$500 Million Provided.
For the fiscal year ending this
month, the United States foreign
aid budget included $500 million
for military procurement overseas.
Up to June IL. contracts had
been let for only $121 ,58O,162 of
this amount. Most of the pur-
chaSes we're for small arms, COM
munications equipment and am
munition.
The budget for the new fiscal
year has not been set, pending
congressional action on appropri-
ationS.
Major foreign buying has been
in France, which has received
$60,530,914 in contracts so fal
this fiscal year. The Netherlands
has received $36,489, ,686, Italy
$10,093. 1862. and Britain $685.
