Arms Aid Increase
Under|ines turkeys
Vital Anti-Red Role
BY The Assoeiussd Press

The Eisenhower administra-
tion has assured Prime Minister
Adnan Menderes Of Turkey that
military assistance for his ma
ton in the next IL months will
total around $500 million and
that arms deliveries will be
speeded up.
Mr.. Menderes thus left Wash
ington yesterday with what ap-
peared to be a considerable per-
sonal triumph. He had averted q
heavy cut in United States mill
tary aid funds. had gotten a
promise that the funds would
total a little more in the next
fiscal year and had obtained the
speed-up agreement.
President Eisenhower and Sec
retary Of State Dulles told Mr..
Menderes that they consider his
nation a key ally in the world
Communist conflict. They as
sured him of continued economic
assistance. though at d some
what lower level. and went about
as far as they could to promise
both military and economic help
to meet essential requirements
over the next several years.
4-Year Plan q Factor.
In fact. one thing that appar-
emily caused the administration
to abandon plans to cut Turkish
military aid program in the year
beginning July / by possibly so
per cent-down to $100 million
or leSs-is the fact that Prime
Minister Menderes is working on
q four-year armament program.
A joint communique was is
sued shortly after Mr.. Menderes
left for Ankara. It failed to give
the hard facts and figures which
were a major concern of the
Turkish leader in his four-day
round Of conference here.
Diplomats explained why Gen.
Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles
decided to exempt Turkey from
the general downward trend of
foreign aid. One reason is that
Turkey is considered one of the
toughest and most dependable
allies the United States has. Its
position in the Middle East on
the southern flank of the Soviet
Union is of enormous strategic
Importance.
The Turkish aid program is
part Of the $3.5 billion foreign
aid package pending before Con-
gress. Since there is no prospect
OF any increase, it is apparent
that the dollars which will 60
to Turkey mean some other ma
tions will get less.

deficit figure be reduced. The
deficit picture also could
brighten with a substantial up
turn in business that be reflected
in higher revenues to the city.
General Fund Is Trouble Spot.
The general fund-that fund
which provides for the construc-
ton and operation Of health,
welfare, schools, corrections and
recreation services and installa-
tions-is the trouble spot, as it
chronically Is. The highway.
water, sewer and motor vehicle
parking funds appear to be in
sound shape as far as can be
foreSeen.
Among the chief causes for re-
vising the January estimates to
conform with information OBJ
tanned this month were these
slumps in revenue: Individual
income, $3.50. 900; corporation In
come, $5O0,O00: unincorporated
business income, $150.000; beer.
$50,000.
other categories increased.
among them 100000 in insur-
ance premium taxes.
100000 More Annually.
The proposed new legislative
amendments that would add to
the burden of present operating
costs total more than $500. 900
annually. These include 1928, 1000
to meet an increased number
of public assistance recipients;
$3.50, 900 for more inspectors to
further the Slum clearance pro-
gram, and $4,000 for an ex-
panded civil defense program.
In the three-year picture pre-
sented to Senator Case. op-
Grating expenses alone are shown
to rise from $118.4 million in
fiscal 1855, to $126.7 million in
fiscal 1857.
Another factor that con-
tributes to the difference be-
tween the January forecast and
the June forecast is that the
former contemplated substantial
Federal loans that never ma

California 10 Hold
Primary Spotlight
In BaIIoting tuesday
BY ,he A,soeic,ed Press

California. Iowa and South
Carolina hold primaries this
week. with the West Coast State
in the spotlight. Last minute
drives there for the Senate. and
q House contest featuring James
Roosevelt as q contender, have
Sparked an otherwise mild cam
paign.
A law permitting candidates
to file on both major party
tickets makes it possible for
some sudden death" results in
California. For. If a man wins
both nominations it makes his
election in November a mere
formality. Nearly all candidates
have crossed-filed.
The California primary is on
Tuesday. the same day Demo-
Gratis in South Carolina hold a
primary in which candidates for
Governor have differed over de-
tails Of how to maintain sep
arate schools for whites and
Negroes despite the Supreme
Court decision banning segrega-
ton.
Maybank, Gillette UnOpposed.
Senator Burnet r. Maybank
is unopposed for a third nomina-
ton, which in South Carolina
means election.
Iowa Republicans and Demo-
Gratis vote tomorrow. Senator
Guy M. Gillette. Democrat. and
Representative Thomas E. Mar
tin, Republican, have no COM
petition for Senate nominations.
Chief interest there is in six
man race for Republican nomi-
nation for Governor in which
there may be a test vote on le-
galizing the sale Of liquor by
the drink. Iowa now allows
liquor to be sold only in State
owned stores.
Altogether. candidates will be
chosen tomorrow and Tuesday
for three Senate, three Governors
and A House seats.
To date, IL States have held
primaries with only three in
cumbent defeats: Senator Alton
Lennon, Democrat, Of North
Carolina and Representatives
Robert Crosser, Democrat, OF
Ohio and Homer Angel. Repub-
lican, of Oregon.
50 Per Cent Vote Forecast.
Republicans 60 into the Cali
fornia election with a solid ma
jority Of incumbents for lis
State, congressional and legis-
lative offices, but still the mi
nority party in registration.
Democrats outnumber Republi-
cans. 4-3. but in the past this
has not helped them in State
races. Election officials predict
a vote Of less than so per cerr
of the 3,112.OO4 registered Demo-
Gratis and 2,348,412 Republicans.

judication. DR.. Oppenheimer's
attorneys have asked permission
to present oral arguments and a
brief directly to the commission.
Charge Unsupported.
One of the key charges in the
Oppenheimer case was that the
nuclear scientist opposed the
hydrogen bomb program even
after President Truman decided
on it as national policy. The
special security board found no
evidence to back this charge, but
said that had DR.. Oppenheimer
been an enthusiastic supporter Of
the program it would have gone
along with greater speed.
In his testimony Friday. DR..
Smyth said the Acc decided
unanimously that the decision on
a hydrogen weapon program
should be left to the President
and that no formal vote on a
recommendation of any kind
was taken by the commission.
Opinions Differed.
DR.. Smyth explained that q
letter was sent to Mr.. Truman in
which the various facets Of the
problem were discussed and that
at the end each member made
his own suggestion on whether he
thought the H-bomb could and
should be built. He said he and
two others presumably Chair
man David Lilienthal and Sum-
ner T. Pike suggested ION the
whole" that the Government
should not go ahead "immedi-
ately" on the program.
The two commissioners who
called for a high priority H
bomb project were Admiral
Strauss leading advocate
among Government officials
and Gordon Dean, who later was
named Acc chairman.
DIR. Smyth said, however. that
by the time the President an
nounced his H-bomb decision on
January 81, 1850. he and another
commissioner had changed their
views "appreciably."
DR.. Oppenheimer was a lead
ing opponent among the scien-
fists Of the H-bomb proposal
during the debate of 1949-50.
But while he has said he ended
this opposition after Mr.. Tru-
mans announcement, he has not
said he changed his personal
views on the subject.
