Dulles Says Peoples
E0f East Think U. 5.
Friendship |sCoo|ing
By 6ornett D. Homer


Secretary of State Dulles found
on a three-week trip through the
Middle East and South Asia that
the people in that important
part of the world felt American
friendship has grown cold"
He reported this in a statement
to newsmen at the White House
late yesterday soon after he and
Mutual Security Director Harold
E. Stassen returned from their
goodwill mission.
He declared, however, that
1--WE laid a new foundation for
friendship"
Mr.. Dulles read his frank
statement into newSreel micro
phones after he and Mr.. Stassen
made a preliminary report to
President Eisenhower. They went
to the White House Immediately
after landing at National Air
port in a military Air Transport
Service plane.
Authorized by President.
A White House spokesman said
the President authorized Mr.
Dulles statement.
The Secretary said this Gov
eminent is determined Ito find
a way toward broader unity
tying the Near East and South
Asia closer to the West.
This must be done, he said
without any breach in the ranks
of the Western powers and with
out in anywise undermining the
state of Israel"
Mr.. Dulles cited the uneasy
armistice and economic warfare
between Israel and the Aral
states" as one of many situa'
tons which create fear, bitter
ness and weakness" in that par
of the world.
Saying that 'only communism
can profit" from such conditions
Mr.. Dulles said the broader
unity" sought by this Govern
ment would be to the advantage
of all concerned and add to thu
strength of the free world.
/ Need Inspiration"
The Secretary recalled tina
the peoples in the strategic Neal
East and South Asia once looked
up to the United States will
respect and admiration" ane
now need the friendly inspira
ton and guidance we once pro-
vided."
But" he added, "they fee
that in our maturity we have
grown materialistic at the ex.
pense of idealism and justice anc
that our friendship has grown
cold"
He said. however, that tn,
people were cordial and welcom
ing to him and Mr.. StasSen anC
that Communist efforts every
where they went to disrupt thei
mission failed.
He said the information
gained on the trip will make tn

Senators Will Study
Putting Foreign Aid
In State Department

Two key members said today
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee will study closely q
recommendation to liquidate the
Mutual Security Agency and
place all foreign aid within the
State Department.
A unanimous proposal to
make the shift has come from
II teams Of businessmen who, at
the request of MSA Director
Harold E. StasSen, surveyed first
hand the United State foreign
aid program in nine European
and five Far Eastern nations.
Senator Wiley. Republican, of
Wisconsin, chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee. said after hearing testi-
mony from three of the II teams
that they made out quite case.
However, he said he thought Mr..
StasSen could work as well with
Secretary of State Dulles from
the Security Agency as he could
within the State Department.
Can Ignore Recommendation.
Senator Knowland, Repub-
lican. of California put it this
way: IT think the committee
cannot completely ignore the
unanimous recommendation of
all these teams. Weight will have
to be given their proposal"
The two Senators spoke out
following what was probably the
final committee hearing on the
administrators request for $54
billion in new money for for
eign aid in the year starting
July l.
Senator Wiley said he hoped
to have a bill ready for the
Senate within two weeks.
Possibly the most startling
testimony on how the program is
viewed by Mr.. StaSSen's teams of
business experts came from
Frederick Crawford, head of the
team which surveyed Italy.
Scores Faults in Italy.
Mr.. Crawford said none of the
$3.5 billion dollars in aid to Italy
since World War II will make
any permanent improvement" in
the Italian economy. He did not
blame aid administrators for all
the faults he said he noticed but
scored, in addition, monopoly,
corruption and a bad tax sys-
tenn" in the italian economy as
well as government ownership of
so per cent of Italy's productive
capacity.
Future aid. he said. should be
confined to selected military pro-
jectS, such as production of small
weapons. boats, equipment for
United States infantry and other
troops stationed in Italy, and
ammunition-items which, he
said, Italy is well able to pro-
vide.

As Tornadoes Strike
Three Dakota Areas

BISMARCK, N. OAK, May 30.
-Tornadoes ripped through the
upper Missouri River Valley late
yesterday killing two persons,
injuring at least a score and
causing heavy property damage
in their sweep through three
small North and South Dakota
communities.
Sweeping on northerly course
from Mclaughlin, S. OAK, 1875
miles south of Bismarck, the
roaring. twisting wind dealt its
greatest blow at Fort Rice and
Solen,a N. OAK. about 80 miles
south and southeast of here.
Killed were Mrs. John Kuntz,
farmers wife at Solen, and Mrs.
John Rebenisch Of Fort Rice.
Heavy Rains Follow.
The injured were brought by

Mandan, 10 miles west of here,
when torrential rains following
the big blow tore out a highway
bridge over a creek between here
and Fort Rice. A relief train for
the Fort Rice-Solen area was
being readied to leave here today
with doctors and nurses aboard.
Plus Ussleman. general store
owner at Fort Rice, population

f1attened." He is hospitalized
here, along with II others, sew
eral of them stretcher cases.
The casualty toll was heavy
among railroad workers living in
IS trailers and six railroad
dormitory cars which were either
smashed or blown away.
Toll May Increase.
State police said the toll might
possibly grow as contact is re-
established with remote farms
and ranches in the sparsely
settled area. Both phone and
power lines were torn out or
damaged.
Leonard Chadwick of Brien,
N. OAK, near Fort Rice, said
hailstones half as big as my
head" fell in the wake of the
15-minute blow. He showed huge
dents in the roof of his auto to
prove the statement.
Herbert Fishburne and his
brother Edward, both occupants

Rice. were tossed 100 feet by the
twister.
1.-THE trailer just seemed to
blow up, like a bomb hit it," one
brother reported.

The high school, a lumber yard
theater and several homes were
unroofed and damaged at Nc
Laughlin. Jack Theeler, the
school superintendent, estimated
damage there at more than
100000. half of that to the
school auditorium, where ma
sonry walls were toppled onto
the seating section.
