New Curb on Trade
With China Is Under
Study, Probers Told
By J. A. O'Leoy

A high Defense Department
official told the Senate Perma-
nent Investigating Committee to-
dey the National Security Coun-
Gil may soon recommend re-
stricting American use of for
eign vessels which also trade
with Red China.
Deputy Assistant Secretary Of
Defense N. E. Halaby testified
before Senator McCarthy's group
that it has been the policy of
the Defense establishment to
avoid use of foreign vessels as
far as possible, but that he knew
of no National Security Council
policy on the subject for the
Government as a whole up to
now.
The witness said he under
stood a new paper on the sub
ject may be issued soon as a
result of a review now under
way in the Security Council.
Mccarthy Comments.
"1t is long overdue-three
years and many lives overdue"
observed Chairman Mccarthy of
Wisconsin.
The hearing began with Rob-
ert F. Kennedy, assistant COM
mlttee counsel, testifying that
last year there were 10 shipping
companies that collected money
for carrying American aid to
friendly countries and also do
ing business with Communist
ports. These companies had 80
ships at their disposal, he said.
Two officials of the Agricul-
ture Department and one from
the General Services Admins
tration agreed with Senator
Mccarthy they could see no
reason why the United States
should do business with ship
ping concerns engaging in this
dual trade.
These witnesses were Clifford
H. Spence and Arthur S. Mason
of Agriculture and A. j. Walsh
of GSA.
MSA Action Cited.
They agreed that if this Gov
ernment laid down a rule against
chartering any vessels of COM
panies which also trade with
Red China. the shipping owners
would have to make a choice as
to which trade they preferred.
By questioning Mr.. Mason and
Mr.. Walsh, the committee de-
veloped that the Mutual Security
Administration last February
added to the charters of ships
carrying supplies to Formosa a
provision under which 25 per
cent of the charter money would
be held back if the ships also
visited a Red Chinese port.
Committee Counsel Francis
Flanagan said that provision is
only on cargoes going to Formosa.
