BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, July
26 (P.-Borba. the Belgrade

for President Tito's government.
claims that right-wing United
States Senators are trying to in
tensify the cold war.
Commenting on the Senate
denying United States military
aid to Yugoslavia, a Borba edi-
torial yesterday singled out fol-
special criticism Senators Know
land, Republican of California
Bridges, Republican Of New
Hampshire. and Mccarthy, Re-
publican of Wisconsin. 1t said
their demand that aid to Yugo-
slavia be cut was a part OF
pressure tactics" to recruit
members Of the Western bloc.
At the same time, the editorial
praised President Eisenhower be-
cause he used his high author
ity to try to prevent a change in
United States policy toward
Yugoslavia."
1t also praised Senator George,
Democrat of Georgia, chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relate
Committee. for asserting that a
cut in aid to Yugoslavia would
harm the world reputation of the
United States.
Borba asserted that the meg
alive campaign" conducted in
the Senate by Senators Know
land, Bridges and Mccarthy is
based on the idea that United
States aid should 60 only to the
anti-Communist friends of the
United States such as Chang
Kai-Shek and Syngman Rhee."
But. the editorial concluded,
"disregarding the final outcome.
we have many reasons to hail
the stand taken by Eisenhower
and by the American Govern
ment."

House Move Threatens
To SheIve Housing Bill

bill and keep the public housing
section.
The immediate effect of Mr..
Wolcott's intended objection to
sending the Senate-approved
bill to conference would be to
prevent further House action Of
any kind without additional
clearance by the House Rules
Committee.
i Rules Committee Chairman
Smith,. Democrat of Virginia,
who like Mr.. Wolcott has OPP
posed the continuation of the
public housing program, said he
did not know whether he could
arrange a meeting of his COM
mittee during the congressional
adjournment drive. Even so, he
added. there was no assurance
that the committee would report
out again the substitute version
which the House adopted yester-
day.
Sends Own Bill Along
Ordinarily, in the case of diff
fering versions the House would
have asked for a Senate House
conference after striking out
provisions of the Senate bill and
inserting its own provisions I'M
der the Senate bills title. Yes
terday. however, the House made
no move to do this. 1t merely
ordered that its own bill under
the House title be transmitted
to the Senate.
This gave the Senate a choice
of accepting the House bill with.
out further ado, or amending it
and returning it to the House
for further consideration, or ask
ing for a conference.
\ The bill approved by the House
was a compromise between q
measure originally reported by
the House Banking Committee
and the views Of many members,
including majority of the Rules
COMMITTEE. The Banking Com
mittee'S bill would have author
lied $4,000 public housing units
in each of three years.
