Ter General Campbell that De-

million of foreign aid money
from the fiscal year 1854 in vio-

Mr.. Campbell also testified yes

furnished with accurate and re-

Urges New Outlay Method
The Controller General also
recommended adoption of a new
method of appropriating for for
eign aid that would eliminate
large carry-over balances from
year to year. He suggested one
way of doing this would be
to appropriate OH the basis of
goods to be delivered or services
to be performed within the COM
ing year. rather than on the
basis of obligations to be in

would require a new law, how

in this work.

would find it practicable or desir-

Soviet Russia" Mr.. Dulles said
The secretary also was asked
if the United States had become
Idisillusioned with Egyptian Pre-

recognition of Red China and
other actions.
Discusses Arms Cut
Mr.. Dulles said the United
States sympathizes with Mr.
efforts to emphasize
Egyptian independence and then
added:
1.-THE extent to which he takes
actions promoting the interest
of the Soviet Union, we do not
look with favor on such actions. "
Mr.. Dulles spent large por-
ton of a news conference that
ran nearly As minutes in discuss

possible effect on lessening
tensions.
In the first place, the Secre-

After a conference of Repub-

Senator Knowland said amend

bill on the Senate floor today tc

Inian is hopeful that similar pro-
visions will be adopted by the
House.
Differences on Cost
Senator Knowland estimated
the bills cost in its present form
rat $3.50 million a year. He SAID
the administration hoped to cut
the cost to $245 million by trim
ming some of the proposed an
nuity and Survivorship benefits
increases. Democrats differ with
the Republicans on the bills cost
asserting that it would cost only
$3.50 million a year.
Senate approval will send the
bill to the House. The House
has not yet taken action on
retirement legislation, preferring
to wait until the Senate acts.

Soviet Sailors
Denied Asylum
Mcleod Says Russians
Made No Application
BY the Associated Press

The State Department has re-
jected a request by four more
Soviet seamen on Formosa for
asylum in the United States.
The rejection. it was learned
today, was made by the Office of
Scott Mcleod. chief of security
land consular affairs. on grounds
that no formal application was
on record.
The question of the seamen
was checked to Mr.. Mcleod by
Walter S. Robertson. Assistant
Secretary of State for Far East
affairs. Mr.. McLeod's refugee
chief, Pierce Gerety. relayed it to
the Church World Service, New
York.
The Church World Service
acted as sponsor for nine Soviet
Iseamen who were brought to the
United States last October over
the objections of the Immigra-
ton Service and with the strong
backing of the Central Intelli-
gence Agency.
Part of Taupse's Crew
These nine. like the four try
/ ing to get in, were part of the
crew of the Soviet tanker
Taupse. The Nationalist Chi
Inese captured the tanker nearly
two years ago and informed its
crew on FormoSa. The captain
and % crewmen went back to
Russia soon afterward.
/ Last April Z five of the nine
Iseamen who had gained admit
lance to this country flew home
to the Soviet Union under cir
cumstanceS that led to the ex-
pulsion of two members of Rus
sia's delegation to the United
Nations.
The four who stayed swore to
the Senate Internal Security
Subcommittee they would never
90 back to Russia-they told the
same thing to Soviet Ambassador
Georgi Zarubin.
They testified at the Senate
hearing they believed the five
who went back we're kidnapped"
Four Filed Application
OF the IL Taupse crewmen still
on Formosa, four filed a formal
application for United States
entry in a letter last March to
the Church World Service.
The Church World Service. in
forwarding the letter. noted that
the four seamen could not meet
Refugee Relief Act requirement
since they had once belonged to
the Communist youth organiza-
ton. But they could be allowed
entry, as were their shipmates
upon waivers from Secretary oil
State Dulles and Attorney Gen.
eral Brownell.
II was learned Mr.. Gerety
notified the Church World Serv-
ice yesterday the department
could take no action in the case
since it had no record of a for
NAL application from the men.
The seven other crewmen are
reported working for the Nation
aliSt China government. They
have not expressed any wish to
come to the United States.
Emigre Blackmailing Reported
Meanwhile the Internal Sc
curity Subcommittee was re-
ported seeking to halt Soviet
Matchmaking of Iron Curtain
refugees who gained asylum in
this country illegally.
Robert Morris. subcommittee
counsel. said the threat of ex-
posture to United States immi-
grafton officials was being used
against 10000 to 10000 refugees
who took false names or said
they were born in non-Commu-
mist countries in order to enter
the United States.
In a radio interview on Mu-
tuals Reporters Roundup, MIR
Morris said the subcommittee
was launching a thorough in
,vestigation."

Your big problem in child nutrition is
to get them to eat enough of the sub

NAL physical and mental development.
Which means we'll balanced diet of

II Ways To Growth
Wonder Bread contains IL essential
food elements that help your child grow

in Wonder Bread are compared with
similaramountsconta edinotherfoods.
This does not suggest that Wonder
Bread take the place of these other
foods. Or that your child is deficient in
any of these clements particularly CO.
bait, copper, zinc and manganese.
However, the fact is Wonder Bread
does contain each Of the II food elements

approximately in the amounts shown.
And, as leading nutrition specialists
have pointed out, each one Of the IL is
important in nutrition.
Thus, when you give Wonder Bread
to your child, you know you are helping
your child grow bigger and stronger
