Guatemala Seizes
Most Of United Fruits
Atlantic Coast Lands
Hardest Blow Struck
Yet, Red Soys; Eventual
Company Custer Seen
BY the Associated Press

GUATEMALA, Nov. 18.-The
leftist Guatemalan government
has appropriated about 100000
acres Of land belonging to the
United Fruit Co. A Gu.!emalar
Communist leader called the
move "the most profound blow
suffered by Yankee imperialism.
The land, in the Tiquisate
zone of Southern Guatemala
was appropriated Sunday under
the agrarian reform law. A
decree provides for distribution
of the land to peasants. The
program would take away more
than two-thirds of United Fruits
Atlantic Coast acreage.
Red Cites Futile Plea.
At ceremonies marking the ex-
preparation, Carlos Manuel Pei
lecer, Guatemalan Communist
leader, said:
This day marks the most
profound blow suffered by
Yankee imperialism. The expro-
priation is the most important
that has been carried out up to
now, despite the fact that the
company Omitted Fruit) ap-
pealed to the State Department
in Washington on behalf of its
claims, which have no basis for
their existence.
The government has previously
taken about 215,000 acres from
the fruit company on the Pacific
side of the country, leaving it
64.896 acres.
The United States has OBJ
iected to Guatemala's proposal to
pay for the appropriated land
at it's 1921 tax evaluation in rs
year agrarian bonds. United
States officials insist the valua-
ton is unjust and that the bonds
have doubtful value.
Laws Application Disputed.
United Fruit contends that the
land taken over was not uncul-
tivated, within the meaning OF
the agrarian reform law. but
was needed for banana growing
when cultivated areas had to
be abandoned, as periodically
happens because of a soil fungus
called banana disease. The
company also insists that the
land should be paid for at a
much higher tax valuation which
it tried unsuccessfully to get the
government to accept in 194e
after improving the land.
Observers here of the leftiS:
governments policy have ex-
pressed the view that Guate-
mala intends eventually to drive
out United Fruit. which does q
multi-million dollar business in
both bananas and shipping.

Six-Poiint Plan
On Legislation
Doesn't Look for
Next Years Budget
To Be Balanced
By Joseph A. Fox

President Eisenhower today
outlined a six-point program
that will be pressed by bis ad-
ministration in the next Con-
gress. He said at the same time
he did not look for a balanced
budget in the fiscal year starting
next July /.
Listing the measures to be
taken up with Republican con-
gressional leaders at a White
House meeting December 17-19
the President also opened up the
possibility that Democratic lead
erS also may take part in the
conference. Gen. Eisenhower
said that certainly where a BIZ
partisan action was called for,
he intended to have leaders
from both parties represented.
White House sources expressed
conviction afterward, however
that no Democrats would sit in
on the December 1913 meeting
which is actually looked upon as
an organizing session of the Re
publicanS for the next Congress
At the same time it was felt
that this did not preclude Demo-
cratic leaders being brought into
conference at the White House
before Congress returns.
Security Major Topics.
The President listed these as
the principal items to be taken
up at the conference:
l. mountaineering defense
2. Fiscal policy-including ex-
penditures, taxation and the
budget situation.
3. A new farm program.
4. Labor law changes.
S Public housing and slum
clearance.
6. Social security expansion.
Z. Foreign aid, particularly
the military aid phase. -
The President stressed that
he was not excluding other
topics.
In explaining why he does not
anticipate a balanced budget in
the next fiscal year, Gen. Eisen-
hover said some taxes are vexpir-
ing-actually the Government
will lose about So billion in cuts
starting in January-and that
there will be some gap, as he
put it, between income and
outgo.
The President also said there
had been some unusually heavy
farm expenditures needed-be-
cause of emergency conditions.
Earlier, administration spokes-
men had been emphasizing the
likelihood that a balanced budg-
ct would be possible in another
18 months.
Would Bolster Economy.
Covering a wide range of do
mestic topics in the Commute
session, the President also:

cleanup of Washington will
eliminate the Communist issue
and wipe out the suspicious of
the American people that their
Government is weak in handling
Reds.
The President sought to avoid
direct comment on the White
case. which yesterday found At
torney General Brownell and
FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover
diSputing the statements of for
mer President Truman.
But one question Gen. Eisen-
hover could not avoid: What
comment did he have to make
on Mr.. Truman's remark that
the Eisenhower administration
has embraced "McCarthyism."
Responds Angrily.
Gen. Eisenhower's face fared
angrily red. He shot back that
he was ready to take the judg-
ment of the reporters attending
the news conference. He spoke
so quickly that he had to repeat
the remark for reporters who did
not understand his staccato
words.
Gen. Eisenhower in general
discounted communism as a po-
tential election issue, although
the White case reached a peak
only yesterday.
Mr.. Brownell and Mr.. Hoover
assaulted Mr.. Truman's story
that he kept White in Govern
ment service in order to help the
FBI watch the man who was
labelled a Soviet spy. Mr..
Brownell and Mr.. Hoover hotly
denied that the FBI favored such
a decision.
In Kansas City, Mr.. Truman,
asked to comment on the rebuff
tai of Mr.. Brownell and Mr..
Hoover, told reporters he already
had "set the record straight" !"
Earlier, after saying why waste
words" the former President
had said he didn't hear Mr..
Hoover's testimony, but added
I'm sure he told the truth
Mr.. Brownell and Mr.. Hoover
testified before the Internal Sc
curity subcommittee of Senator
Jenner. For Mr.. Hoover, it was
a memorable event because he
had to step actively into the
political arena. He did so re-
luctantly, but deciSively.
Hoover Urged White Custer.
Mr.. Hoover said he recon-
mended White be dropped from
Government service because of
his espionage activities. He all
but ridiculed Mr.. Truman'S story
that keeping White on the job
would help FBI Investigations.
Mr.. Hoover said Mr.. Truman's
transfer of White from Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury to a
job on the International None
tary Fund "hampered" FBI ef-
forts to keep White under survel-
lance.
Spectators overfloWing the
Senate Caucus Room applauded
periodically as the witnesses,
sometimes with disdain and
sometimes with anger, disputed
Mr.. Truman's account of "all
the facts"
BrOwnelI Amplifies Charge.
Mr.. Brownell, like the lawyer
that he is, presented a lengthy
elaboration of his November 6
