The 1000 people of Louisville Ohio are making prep

Then early in 1853 John Lehman and Karl Bauer,

quest of Louisville people, presented House Joint Resou

throughout Ohio, calling for special instructions the Con-

Congressional
Viewpoint
Sen. John Marshall ButlS1

If present expectations regard
ing appropriations for the year
1855 are fulfilled, the people Of the
United States ill have provided
$50, 848, 100000 in Foreign Aid
Funds to other countries of The
world in the decade since July |,
1915. During the same period, the
people Of Maryland will have paid
$1,I75, 100000 in taxes as their
share Of this burden.
The American taxpayers are so
accustomed to furnishing funds 10
help other countries that they
scarcely notice another sizeable APP
preparation Of So, 800 100000 which
will probably be made for that
same purpose before this Congress
adjouIns. In contrast. such matters
as the British loan, UNRRA, Turk
ish-Greek aid, and the Marshall
Plan were seriously questioned and
debated during the early postwar
years.
Three and one-half billion dollars
is a great deal of money, and be-
fore this additional burden is placed
ON the shoulders Of the American
taxpayers, the taxpayers and the
Congress should reeXamine The
premises upon which this aid was
originally provided in order to see
if they are still valid, or if they
were valid at any time. This should
be the prerequisite to determining
how much and to whom foreign
aid should be given in the coming
year.
The early postwar aid programs
were primarily relief measures, and
the beneficiaries included several
countries now behind the iron cur
tain. The Marshall Plan was de
signed to bolster the economies of
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1954-07-22

friendly nations so that they could
become strong links in the free
world chain of defense
How well have these detectives
been met? Early postwar aid for
relief of war-tom countries which
went to Russia, China, Poland,
Czechoslovakia, Hungary and AL
bania must be considered complete
ly without benefit to this country.
On the other hand, beneficiaries
of Marshall Plan aid have improved
their economies to marked de-
gree. This partial success is over
cast by the strong Communist ele-
ment in the governments of both
France and Italy, who are present
ly conducting a boycott Of the
European ID e f en- $ Community
which may cause that organization
to die before it can be launched.
Eight hundred million dollars Of
the $3l2 billion foreign aid bill
was Originally proposed for the sup
port of the French effort in Indo-
China. The minority report on the
new Foreign Aid bill had this to
say about the proposed eXpendi-
ture: at is shocking to consider
that the L. s. has been paying APP
proXimately 65f, of the dollar cost
of the Indo-China war for dis
credited Navarro plan. More shock
ing still, however, is the necessity
to remind the House that $500 mil
lion is now proposed-not for a
Navarro plan E, but for a NO
plan"
When the Congress originally
voted funds to strengthen free
Europe against the threat of Red
aggression, it was assumed that
Europe wanted to cooperate with
us in her defense but simply did
not have the money to do it with
out our assistance. This assumption
on both counts should be carefully
examined in the light of present
conditions.
During the last three years, the
L. S. has allocated two-thirds of
its expenditures to defense while
most other countries, outside the
orbit of Russia, have used only 1/5
to 1/3 of their expenditures for

ism. In the same book he deplores
the evil of the times and exhorts
his own Quakers to better life.
But the religion of the Friends
was not quite satisfying. Spiritual
unrest drove him to try several
other sects which appealed for the
moment. In 1910 he met Rabbi
Isaac Lesser, and this leader of
American Orthodoxy created an
i m pression that ultimately
changed the life and faith of
Warder Cresson.
Missionaries
Early in the 10th century pious

agriculture, commerce, or indus

spired some English missionaries
to form the London Society for
Conversion of Jews" At Jeru-
salem, the pickings in the vim
yard of the Lord seemed too good
to be overlooked.
The A m eri C a n missionaries
looked hungrily at the harvest for
souls in the Holy Land. They
sensed the benefit to their own
prestige if the growing power of
the u. S. A. would be represented
by a consulate in Palestine. They
were also aware of the religious
yearnings in Warder Cresson and
saw in him excellent material for
a missionary. It seemed therefore
an inspiration from heaven that

A plausible explanation lies in
the unwillingness of Jews to well
come an apostate from another re-
ligion. Everything is done to dis
courage the stranger who comes
knocking at the synagogue door.
He is assured that his soul can be
saved in his ancestral faith if he
leads a blameless life. The ger is
accepted only after he demon
strates the sincerity of his CONVEX
sion beyond all doubt. Such, at
least, was the experience OF a
Quaker from Philadelphia.
The Quaker
Warder Cresson was given to
Bible study and religious Specu-
lation. At the age of thirty, he
