S3.4 Billion Foreign
Aid Bill Caught in
Congress Crossfire
By Robert K. Walsh

The $3.4 billion foreign aid
authorization bill backed by the
Eisenhower administration was
caught in a legislative-executive
crossfire today involving Repub-
licans more than Democrats as
it headed for House debate Mon
day. -
House Republicans sponsoring
the mutual security measure gave
clear warning-even as British
Prime Minister Winston Church.
i'll and Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden were about to arrive
in WaShington-that the bill
must not be fused to buy a Lo-
carno Pact for Southeast Asia"
Several influential House Re-
publican opponents of the for
eign assistance program made
equally clear that in the debate
next week they will challenge the
programs basic policy and ne
cessity as well as particular pro-
visions of the bill.
Preview of Floor Battle.
A preview of the House floor
battle took place at three-hour
meeting of the Rules Committee
late yesterday. The committee
finally cleared the measure for
five hours Of general debate and
left the way open for amend
ments from the floor.
Two Republican members,
Representatives Brown of Ohio
and Reece of Tennessee, closely
and sometimes sharply ques-
toned ranking Republic a n
Spokesman for the Foreign At
fairs Committee which had re-
ported out the bill, II to 4.
Mr.. Brown declared that the
American people "have a right
to know whether they can ever
begin to look forward to an end
to this spending of foreign aid
billions"
Representative VoryS. Ohio,
Republican on the Foreign At
fairs Committee, as well as Com
mittee Chairman Chiperfield, Re-
publican, of Ohio, defended the
overall aim and specific sections
of the bill authorizing expendi-
ture of $3,47O, 608, 900 during the
fiscal year beginning July l. Mr..
Chiperfield said it was in no way
a give bill but was pri-
marily to safeguard the best in
tereStS of the United States.
Not Buying LocarnO Pact"
Mr.. Vorys told reporters later,
however, that the committee it
self might offer an amendment
to the bill on the House floor.
Such an amendment, he said,
would aim on banning foreign
assistance funds for the sort of
Southeast Asia defense arrange
ment Mr.. Eden suggested in the
British Parliament Wednesday.
1T must be made crystal
clear" Mr.. Vorys declared,
either by executive statements
or legislative action that we are
not buying any Locarno pact"

The Secretary also greeted Mr..
Eden, who only two days ago
proposed a 'Locarno" type treaty
for Southeast Asia and thus
aggravated an Anglo-American
split over how to stop commu-
niSm in Southeast Asia.
On the drive to the White
House, the Prime Minister sat
with Mr.. Nixon on the back seat
of an open car. The route was
via Memorial Bridge, Constitu-
ton avenue and Seventeenth
street NV.
Gen. and Mrs. Eisenhower.
standing on the north portico
of the White House, welcomed
the guests at 9:25 am.
A few hundred spectators on
the Pennsylvania avenue side
walks cheered Sir Winston
upon his arrival at the north
west gate of the White House
grounds.
More cheers went up from

scores of White House staff
members gathered to watch the
greeting. tx
Gen. Eisenhower walked down
the steps to shake hands with
his famous guest as he stepped
out of the car. Then the Presi-
dent led his guest up the steps,
where Mrs. Eisenhower greeted
him with How nice to see you. )"
The President told Sir
Winston: We've got to stop
here a moment to have your pic
ture made-that is not exactly a
new experience, is it?"
Mr.. Eden, riding with Mr..
Dulles, then joined the group.
Hello, Anthony, how are you?
Glad to see you," the President
greeted him.
After shaking hands with
other members of the British
party and posing for pictures
with their guests, the EiSenhoW-
erS led the way into the White
House at 9:27 am.
Soon after their arrival at the
White House, Sir Winston and
Mr.. Eden went with the PreSi-
dent and his wife to the family
quarters on the second floor.
There the Prime Minister was
given his choice of the Rose
room suite or the Lincoln room.
Selects Rose Room Suite.
He chose the Rose Room suite
bedroom, sitting room and
bath-in which he has stayed
on all the four other occasions
on which he was a house guest
at the White House during
World War II.
Mr.. Eden was put in the Lin
coin room.
Capt. Christopher Soames,
Sir Winston's Son-in-law and
parliamentary private secretary.
was given a room on the third
floor.
Kirkwood, the Prime Minister'S
valet, also is staying in 1.-The
White House. Other members of
the British party are staying

Since this was the first time
Sir Winston had been in the
upstairs family quarters of the
White House since renovation of
the Executive Mansion, Presi-
dent and Mrs. Eisenhower led
him on a tour of the upstairs
rooms.
Offices Available.
Gen. Eisenhower also had Of

visitors if they should want in on

tees of the territorial integrity
of Laos and Cambodia and if
they were authorized to have
sufficient military establishments
to safeguard their own terri
tories. the United States would
be willing to forego any bases
/. there but the Chinese would
have to keep their troops out.
United States officials believe
that world domination is the
long-range goal of communism.
The fact that the United States
is less optimistic than Great
Britain about the long-range
possibilities of co-existence of
the Communist and democratic
systems probably is the general
basis for the Anglo-American
differences that have arisen
since the cold war began.
Sir Winston brought with him
experts in the questions involved.
Gen. Eisenhower will call in
corresponding American special
lists for discussions on specific
topics. Most of the conference,
however, will be between the
Prime Minister and the President

macy that should fare better
