point Of view. He shows that
only small progress has been
made during fiscal 1853 in in
creasing the defense forces
which are supposed to resist
possible Red aggression.
The Slst and 82d Congresses
did not bubble over appropri-
ating most Of the MSA funds
asked by the administration
in the hope that by the end
Of this year we might be able
to start cutting down the ex-
penditures and also have an.
army worthy Of the name be-
tween the Elbe and the Rhine.
Neither has happened.
In the endeavors to reduce
the taxpayers burdens. the
executive and legislative
branches Of the Government
have looked all over the lot to
find a place to cut down. The
economies which can be real
lied in various non defense
items are mere chicken feed.
Insofar as defense is concerned
there is much room to reduce
waste, but we may have to
increase the size of our armed
forces, possibly by supplement
tary appropriations.
The present world situation,
particularly since Stalin's
death, is such that we must
not be caught of guard.
Hence. any sizable reduction
in next years budget can be
found only in the MSA, and
the mood Of Congress is to cut
those funds to the bone.
There is no question but
that this will be highly dis
tasteful to most of our allies
which have been accustomed
since 1916 to rely on extern
sive American financial sup
port. It is possible that as a
result of such a fiscal policy
M. Mayors cabinet may last
only a short time. But the
past liberality Of the Ameri-
can Government in doing out
funds to our allies has not en-
abled French governments to
remain in Office more than a
few months. And there is
nothing to indicate that M.
Mayors administration would
fare better even If we dug
deeper into our pockets to
SUPPORT il.

assured, the President pulled
the spotlight his way in the
final stages and stole the lions
share of the credit by his
eleventh-hour staunch pro-
nouncement Of support for Mr..
Bohlen at ibis Thursday news
conference. This was accom-
panied. for good measure, with
a few sour apples in the direc-
ton Of Senator Mccarthy, Re-
publican, Of Wisconsin, who
had taken over leadership Of
the fight against the Presi-
dents nominee.
A fortunate recess Of the
Senate over Thursday until
Friday gave the President the
opportunity to dramatic his
own intervention at q stra-
tegic point. and the absence
Of debate In the Senate that
day permitted full play Of
what he had to say. So 1t
all worked out very nicely In
the end.
President Eisenhower finally
came to see that the Bohlen
affair was the test Of his
leadership which. unless met,
could very well have. meant q
weakening Of his prestige and
influence with Congress that
could have q slowly disintegrat-
ing effect. This became even
more apparent when Senator
Mccarthy jumped into the
fray and took command Of the
opposition. The President had
to stand up and flght-or else.
It was his political Battle Of
the Bulge.

Doris FIeeson:

Washington's every move
and policy with respect to the
Soviet Union is cautious, ten
tative and subject to change
without notice, according to
the winds that blow from the
Kremlin.
This being so it can be
stated reliably that present
plans are for President Eisen-
hover himself to make some
sort Of gesture to the Russians
in response to their apparent
willingness to do something to
reduce the present East-West
tensions. The President has at
least one important speech
scheduled for next month.
Precisely what he might say
or do is undetermined. In the
discussions that are taking
place, one idea being set forth
Is that he could profltably
stress the theme that the
world has entered a new era
with the passing Of Stain and
the accession of the Eisen-
hover administration here.
It is believed in the State
Department that Soviet Prime
Minister Malenkov is not in
sensitive to the appeal of a
new pattern Of behavior which
would enable him to step for
ward from the Stain shadows
as a leader in his own right.
Various bits Of information
Evening star., 1953-03-30

give q sympathetic hearing to
the needs of France.
The Frenchmen came here
with what they consider mod
est demands. They believe
that the nearly 81 billion MSA
appropriation suggested by the
former administration cannot
be pared down without seri-
ously affecting the rearma-
ment Of the NATO member
nations. All the French gov
ernment is reported to want
now is about 500 million more
than it received last year.
The French minister Of
finance had a breakdown Of
the figures which show that
while metropolitan France is
willing to accept less money
for her military needs than
last year. she wants to allo-
cate a sum close to $3.50 mil
lion for the war in Indo-C China.
And to achieve this goal the
French leaders, believe that
we should increase Frances
share of the MSA by 800 mil
lion.
Insofar as Congress is con-
cerned, this is a mere book
keeping operation concerning
the French government alone.
The net result will be, however,
that the taxpayers will have to
dig into their pockets and find
500 million more for foreign
aid.
AS things stand at present,
it is highly improbable that
the administration, despite
Gen. Eisenhower's prestige and
influence, will obtain from
Congress anywhere near the
81 billion provided in the Tru-
man administrations budget
estimates for 1854. If Congress
appropriateS IS billion it will
be little short Of a miracle.
Besides being anxious to bal
ance the budget and reduce
taxes, the overwhelming num-
ber Of Senators and Repre-
sentativeS are dissatisfied with
the slow rearmament prog
resS Of our allies in Western
Europe. The report on the
status Of the Western Euro
pean armies sent to Washing

Here are some excerpts from
the Senate Armed Services
Committee testimony Of a few
days ago which tell the tragic
story of confusion in our COM
mand setup:
Gen. Collins, Chief Of Staff
Of the United States Army: We
are literally fighting a war in
reacetime or what is supposed
to be peacetime. This is some
thing unprecedented in Ameri-
can history. We have been
mobilizing, fighting a large
scale war. and demobilizing, all
at the same time. Never be-
fore have we struggled to meet
enormous battlefield rates of
consumption of materiel with
only a limited mobilization of
this Nations great industrial
capacity. About so per
cent Of our Army is overseas.
:. Any examination of am
munition supplies cannot be
isolated from our ammunition
supplies worldwide.
Senator Byrd: Part Of the
time it has been a sitdown war,
hasn't it, during the 'armi-
Stice'?
Gen. Collins: Yes, sir.
Senator Byrd: What would
have happened to the ammuni-
ton we don't seem to have
now if there had been q real
all-out war all through this
period?
Gen. Collins: Well, the am
munition was perhaps one of
the factors. I would say
that in accordance with the
National policy during the
period of the 'armNtice,' there
have been no offensives di-
rected by the Eighth Army.
That is not a military deci-
sion, you understand, Senator
Byrd. That is in accordance
with National policy. 80.

from Ell Paso, Tex, were strictly

the bulls would be the victors,

The whole thing started when
the Ell Paso group offered to fight

residents of Juarez and Ell Paso
have been building since 1945.
The matadorS were Panchito
