have put a ceiling of $500 on
the number of employees in the
information program, and called
for the dropping of one-third of
the employees in each unit OF
the program.
In its place, they adopted a
provision giving the director of
the new United States Informa-
ton Service, which comes into
existence August |, blanket au-
thority to hire and fire employees,
without regard to any other law.
Mccarthy Is Satisfied.
This authority would continue
until January. Chairman Bridges
said it was intended to enable
the new director, who has not
yet been appointed, to build up
his own organization.
The committee, in its action on
ia, ignored a otter campaign
waged against that organization
by Senator Mccarthy. The Wis
consin Republican had demanded
that mot one cent" be voted for
the program without the house
cleaning" he has demanded.
Yesterday, however, Senator
Mccarthy indicated he is salts
fed with the Senate committee
changes. He said a reasonable
compromise will be worked out
between the House and Senate
figures.
He also told reporters that

Other increases the Senate
committee approved include:

in place of $37.7 million in the

is in a $2O-million item for
emergency supplies.
Air Bases Raised.
Under military construction,
the million House fund for
Air Force bases was raised to

negotiations with Mr.. Rhee is
whether it should provide for
continued stationing of Ameri-
can forces in Korea.
Mr.. Dulles said he believed Mr..
Rhee had in mind something
like the first article in the
United States-Japan security
treaty which gives the United
States the right to station armed
forces in Japan as a means of
promoting international peace
and security in the area.
He stressed that this was a
right. not an obligation, and so
it would not be inconsistent with
such a treaty to agree with the
Communists at the Forthcoming
political conference on with
drawal of all foreign troops
from Korea.
One of the reasons he is ask
ing the bipartisan group of SEN
ators to accompany him, Mr..
Dulles said, is so he can have
their advice during negotiations
as to what the Senate would be
likely to ratify.
He said he hopes Republican
Senator Knowland of California
and H. Alexander Smith of New
Jersey and Democratic Senators
Lyndon Johnson of Texas and
Russell of Georgia will go with
him.

White House Denies
Jenner and Capehart
Block Craig for u. n.
By Joseph A. Fox

The White House today
brushed aside suggestions that
Indiana's Republican Senators
Jenner and Capehart had
blocked the appointment of Gov.
George N. Craig of Indiana, also
a Republican, to the American
delegation to the United Nations
General Assembly.
At the same time, comment
again was refused on the protest
to President Eisenhower from
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
over the appointment of Gov.
James F. Byrnes of South Caro-
lima to the General Assembly
Shortly before the Byrnes
nomination went to the Senate
late yesterday along with those
of the other members of the
delegation, Walter White, presi-
dent of the NAACP, telegraphed
the President that the organiza-
ton was shocked and dismayed"
by the Byrnes appointment.
Cites State Constitution.
In the face of reports from
Capitol Hill that Senators Jen-
ner and Capehart had caused
the withdrawal of the proposed
Craig appointment because they
had not been consulted in adj
vance, White House Press Secre-
tary James C. Hagerty told re-
porters that the Governors in
ability to serve was responsible
for his not being named.
Mr.. Hagerty explained that
Gov. Craig was advised not long
ago that he was being considered
for the appointment. but that
he had sent back word that his
States constitution prohibits
either the Governor or Lieuten-
ant Governor from holding any
outside office during the term for
which they were elected.
Gov. Craig's term does not end
until 1857.
The White House received the
word from Gov. Craig about the
middle of last week, Mr.. Hagerty
said. He was unable to account
for the fact that word came out
of indianapolis Saturday that
the Governor had been chosen.
Craig Disputes Report.
In some quarters it was felt
that there had been a mixup in
the Governors Office since Gov.
Craig disputed the report involv-

Senate Approves Plan
ToSend Food Abroad
But With Limitations
BY the Assoeioted Press

President Eisenhower'S pro-
posal to send Government-owned
surplus food abroad to fight
famine or other disaster has won
Senate approval, but with limi-
tations.
The bill would authorize him
to send up to 500 million of
farm commodities overseas be-
tween now and next March Is.
Gen. Eisenhower originally
asked for a two-year authority
to sell or give away any Gov
ernment-held surplus food. But
this promptly stirred objections
that SO to SIS billion worth of
commodities could be shipped
abroad. The Senate Agriculture
Committee wrote in the limita-
ton on the amount.
The House is expected to pass
the Senate measure or its own
bill quickly, possibly tomorrow.
The House Agriculture Com
mittee approved a bill yesterday
with the 500 million ceiling. In
addition. it limited shipments to
$40 million for any one nation;
the Senate bill does not have this
provision.
The Senate. however, did put
in a section designed to permit
the food stocks to be used as a
weapon in the cold war.
This says the shipments could
go not only to friendly nations
but also to friendly but needy
populations without regard to
the friendliness of their govern
ment providing that such COM
moditieS will be so distributed
as to relieve actual distress
among such populations.
The United States has huge
stocks of commodities bought I'M
der farm price support programs.
such as wheat, corn, cotton and
butter.
The famine relief provisions
aroused no opposition in the
Senate.

White Fires Protest.
The Byrnes, Ford and Craig
appointments had been forecast
several days ago and just before
the nominations went to the
Capitol Hill late yesterday. Mr..
White fired his protest against
the South Carolina Governor
who bolted his party to support
Gen. Eisenhower for the presi-
dency.
Declaring that Mr.. Byrnes had
a long and consistent record in
opposition to basic human
rights" the Negro leader added:
"As a member of Congress, as
a Cabinet officer and as Governor
of South Carolina, Mr. ByrneS
has been an open advocate of
and spokesman for racism. His
threat to abolish the public
schools if segregation is banned
is but one instance of his ex-

dice"
His membership on the Amer

ganda against this country, the

LITIGATION to reconvene after for

Among the spectators at the
session was United States Am

doomed when Alfredo Covelli,

its 40 votes against the govern
ment. Spokesman for the Repub-
lican, Moderate Socialist and
Liberal PartieS-Formerly aSso-
ciated with Mr.. De Gasperi-had

would abstain. A speaker for the
Fascist Italian Social Movement
had announced it would put its
20 votes against the government.
Beaten by Combination.
Thus the combination of ex-
IRENE right and extreme left
gave Mr.. De GaSperi the Ok. Had
the MonarchiSts abStained in
stead of voting with the govern
ment's enemies, he would have
made the grade with the support
262 of his Christian Democrats,
against 218 for the combined
Communist, pro-Red Socialist,
and Fascist votes.
Despite his defeat, Mr.. de Cas-
peri indicated again today that
he would continue his center line,
bowling neither to the right nor
the left blocS. This meant that
either he, or another member of
his party, likely will try to form
a new coalition of center parties.
The outgoing cabinet was COM
posed entirely of Christian Dem
oCratS.
Just before the vote Mr.. de
Gasperi made an imprisoned
declaration that he and his party
would never surrender the coun-
try to a government by the Reds
and their Socialist allies. To do
so, he said, would be to make
Rome like Moscow, Prague and
other disgraced cities"
