Authority TO Reveal
British Ships Identity
Is Asked by Mundt
Mcclellan Backs Move
In Charges of Hauling
Communist Troops

! Senator Mundt. Republican, of
South Dakota today demanded
that the administration author
ize the naming of British -owned
ships alleged to have carried
Communist troops along the
China coast during the Korean
war.
His demand was supported by
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat. of
Arkansas.
Both are members of the
Senate investigating subcommit-
tee which received testimony
Wednesday that at least two
British-owned ships had been
engaged in carrying Communist
troops. The charges have stirred
up an international furore with
the British denying that troops
have been carried.
Senator Mundt said Govern
ment officials have opposed the
release of the names on grounds
of security, and asked:
who are we trying to fool?"
No Aid for Enemy Seen.
He said the Chinese Commu-
nistS certainly would know what
ships were used if they actually
engaged in the Transportation
of troops. The release of the
names of the ships without di-
vulging how the information
came to the knowledge of this
Government, Senator Mundt ex-
planned. would reveal nothing
the enemy does not already
know.
The South Dakota Senator,
acting chairman of the investi-
eating subcommittee while SEN
ator Mccarthy, Republican, of
Wisconsin is undergoing a check
up in Bethesda Naval Hospital,
said the names should be made
public to get "the basis of facts"
in view of the British denials.
Senator Mcclellan said who-
ever classified the names of the
ships will be prodded to take
off the secret label"
Senator Mundt said the mat
ter was "Snafooed in the whole
urity-defense setup" and the
subcommittee at the present
time is not sure who is respon-
sible for the secrecy label.
In the Wednesday testimony,
the Wheelock Marden Co. of
Hong Kong was named as the
operator of at least one of the
ships. Officials of the company
have denied the charge.
Charges Called Vague.
In London Foreign Office
representative remarked it was
difficult ito comment on a re-
port that unidentified ships of
unknown tonnage carried un-
specified numbers Of so-called
troops at a date not known be-
tween unstated ports"
The British Information Serv-
ice here also said it was i'm
possible to answer allegations
as vague as this"

$82.6 Million
Cut From Army
Civil Functions
Eisenhower Request
Slushed Is Per Cent.
Bill Reported Out
By Robert K. Welsh

A cut of $s2.6 million, or IS
per cent. in amounts requested
BY President Eisenhower for
Army civil functions and prof.
ects was made in a bill reported
out today by the House Appro-
priations Committee.
The $415, ,991 500 measure, how
ever, would give the Soldiers
Home here $4,655, 900, about
$85, 200 more than the Presi-
dents revised budget asked for
the year beginning July l.. This
total is about $1.2 million more
than the Home received for the
current fiscal year. It is only
$4,000 less than was sought in
the Truman budget submitted
last January. ..
The Truman budget originally
requested $683.377, 100 for Army
civil functions such as flood con-
troll, river and harbor work, the
Soldiers Home, national ceme-
terieS. the Canal Zone Admins
tration and Army Engineers ac-
tivitieS.
Cemetery Fund Cut.
The Eisenhower budget revi-
sion lowered the total to $498,-
650,100. The House committee
cut 1t to $415,9o1, 900. This
would be $168, ,075,O00 less than
the total available for the cur
rent fiscal year.
The committee recommended
that Congress provide for only
one instead of two superintend-
entS at Arlington Cemetery. It
recommended abolition of the
supervisory job filled by an Army
officer. It declared there was no
need for that position when the
cemetery had a civilian super
intendent.
The committee cut the ceme-
tery's appropriation. as requested
in the Truman budget for all
National cemeteries from Sc mil
lion to $4.8 million. But it allo-
Gated an additional $576, 900 for
purchase Of headstones. Army
officials had testified that lack
of funds prevented them from
buying any headstones during
the remainder of the present
fiscal year.
Engineering Slashes.
The principal cuts in the
budget were in projects handled
by the Army Engineer Corps.
particularly flood control and
harbor and river improvement.
The com mittee nevertheless
urged a comprehensive program
for development of the water
resources of the Nation.
mo apparent or tangible steps
have been taken to formulate q
national program for the de-
yelopment of our water resources
which is completely co-ordinated
with all agencies of the Federal
and State Governments" the
committee said. THE lack of q
co-ordinated program is en-
phaSized by conditions prevail
ing in the economic analysis of
projects presented to Congress-"
The committee also urged that
State and community interests
be encouraged to take q greater
financial part in such projects.

Realtors Offer
Plan for Local
SIunls Boards
Could Buy and Roze
Property, Levy Tuxes
And Assessments

The Nations realtors came up
today with legislative proposals
for their own program to clear
slums and discourage creation OF
new blighted areas.
The plans, as outlined by the
National Association of Real
Estate Boards, calls for con-
siderable help by the Federal
Government, including insur-
ance of bonds of new-type
municipal commissions proposed
for establishment as way to
acquire slum buildings for
demolishment.
The Federal Government also
would be asked to provide in
come tax advantages to encour-
age improvement of property
and to amend mortgage insur-
ance laws to make it more
profitable for mortgage finan-
ciers to finance private-enter-
prise improvements.
States also would be asked to
make similar tax concessions.
Called Most Hopeful Plan.
Calling it's program "the most
hopeful plan yet proposed" the
association said it would have
municipalities set up "Commu-
nifty Conservation Commissions"
under new laws that. with ap-
proval of local governments, could
establish "neighborhood conser-
yation areas"
Such commissions. under the
associations plan. would help
enforce health, safety and hous-
ing laws and would also have
powers to acquire buildings and,
in some cases, land itself.
Such commissions also would
be empowered to levy taxes and
special assessments and would
have authority to raze buildings.
The associations plan was
viewed by observers as a sub
stitute for Federal activity in the
slum clearance and public hous-
ing field. which NAREB for
years has bitterly opposed. Re-
Gently. the organization has en-
gagged in a national campaign
to encourage local communities
to crack down on slum land
lords through stricter enforce
ment Of health and sanitation
laws. realizing that slums pro-
vide powerful visual propaganda
for continued Government ac-
tivity in slum clearance and
public housing.
Could Acquire Property.
The commissions advocated
would be allowed to acquire
buildings only-and not land
in cases where it is necessary to
demolish buildings to make an
area conform to a neighborhood
plan. Under this plan. land
would remain in possession of
the original owner.I
In cases where both buildings
and land in slum areas would be
needed for privately owned fa-
cilities such as parking areas, the
commissions would be authorized
to acquire the land and build
ings, provided the land were sold
within years time.
The commissions would also
have the power to levy a small
tax" on all property within a
municipality to provide a revolv-
ing fund for the programs

Charles B. Shattuck, associa-
tion president. said the plan was
developed by the organizations

headed by Fritz B. Burns, a West
Coast builder.

Million Fund Denied
To Start Flood Curb
Work al Peace Cross
House Committee Cuts
Item From Military
Civil Functions Bill

A $415 million Army civil func-
tionS bill reported out today by
the House Appropriations Com
mittee refused a request by
Maryland authorities for 81 mil
lion to begin the work of pre-
venting floods at Peace Cross.
The bill. as reported, did not
indicate Immediately whether q
request for $l75,OOO for prelimi-
nary planning work was con-
tained in any lump sum author
ization for flood control projects.
Leading the fight for the Fed
eral outlay of 81 million to get
the work under way were Rep
resentative Small and Senator
Beall, Maryland Republicans.
They and spokesmen for the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission have stressed that
the recurring Northwest Branch
floods are a national as well as
a local menace and that the
United States should share in
the correction.
Pleas at Hearing.
Senator Beall. Mr.. Small and
Harry Shaw, chief engineer Of
the sanitary commission, ap-
pealed for the fund yesterday at
hearing before the Army Civil
Functions Subcommittee of the
Senate Appropriations Commit
tee.
They made the point that
Maryland already has put up
$4,250, 900 to begin construction
along plans perfected by the
Army Engineers. Senator Beall
stressed that the United States
should accept its share of re-
sponSibiiity.
He and Mr.. Small said work
cannot proceed without a token
Federal appropriation. State and
county authorities cannot go
ahead independently because the
tidewaterS of the Anacostia
River are under Federal control,
they said.
This was a reStatement of
arguments presented May l3
to the House Subcommittee on
the civil functions bill, released
today.
At that time Mr.. Small said
Army Engineers already have
planned the first two phases of
the three-phase control project.
He asked that the million dollars
deleted from the engineers
budget be restored to enable
work to begin.
Technical Clearance.

explained that Federal funds in
any amount technically would
allow the Army Engineers to at
least go ahead and spend our
