U. 5. Aid for Schools
In Congested Areas
Approved by Senate
Maryland and Virginia
Would Be Benefited by
Bills Sent to Conference

The Senate today passed and
sent back to the House for a
conference two different bills for
Federal aid for overcrowded
schools in "Federally impacted
areas"
Should Congress finally work
out differences between tn e
House and Senate versions of the
two measures and the legislation
become law, nearby Maryland
and Virginia would benefit.
One of the measures provides
funds for construction of schools,
the other for maintenance and
operation.
The Senate finally acted after
lengthy debate during which
Senators from all parts of the
country urged enactment be-
cause of the emergency" faced
by communities where Govern
ment installations with their
influx of workers had laid an
unusually heavy load on the
school system.
The House and Senate versions
of the legislation are widely diff
ferent and authorize different
amounts of money.

out in conference a compromise
which Congress could pass and

Last 4 Reorganization Plans
Start in Government Today
Foreign Aid, information, Economic
Council, AirmuiI Subsidies Affected

Offices of the Mutual Security
Agency.
3 Increase the administrative
authority of the chairman of the
Council of Economic Advisers as
part of a move to reinvigorate
that agency which has Ian
guished since Congress cut off
it's funds four months ago.
4. Transfer airmail subsidies,
estimated at about $50 million
year. from the Post Office De-
partment to the Civil Aeronautics
Board. This is aimed at cutting
into the postal deficit, estimated
at about $500 million this year.
No move was made in the
Senate to reject any of the
four. The House defeated reso-
lutions to kill the foreign opera
tions and the information agency
proposals.
Takes Over Military.
The Foreign Operations Ad-
miniStration will take over the
military and economic assistance
programs of the Mutual Security
Agency. the Point Four Office of
the State Department, and the
Institute of Inter American At
fairs.
MSA Director Harold E. StaS-
sen is expected to become the
$22, ,500-a-year administrator.
Theodore C. Streibert, former
board chairman of the Mutual
Broadcasting System, has been
named to direct the new infor-
nation agency. at $17,500 a year.
Secretary of State Dulles
backed the plans, saying he
wants his department to be a
planning and policy making
group with diplomatic relations
as it's only operating job.
The Council of Economic Ad-
visers was put out of business
last April, largely at the in
Sistance of the House, which
refused to grant it any money.
However, Gen. Eisenhower was
given money for an economic
adviser and he chose Arthur F.
Burns, former Columbia Univer-
sity economic professor.
Action on Funds Pending.
Congress now is in the process
of appropriating funds to revive
the council. Mr.. Burns will
head it.
A Civil Aeronautics Board
spokesman said transfer of air
mail subsidies to it will have no
effect on the payments, since
the board will have the funds
for the purpose originally al
lotted to the Post Office De-
partment.
Senator Mansfield, Democrat.
of Montana told his colleagues
yesterday setting up the Foreign
Operations Administration looked
to him like preparation for per-
petuation" of foreign aid.
The United States should be
taking the lead. he urged, in
turning this one-way aid into
two-way trade"
Senator Mansfield said the
best way to avoid duplication
was to put both the assistant
and information programs in
the State Department.
An exception, he said, might
be to put military assistance
under the Defense Department.
