The resolution pledges the

Middle East nations attacked by
Communist forces and requesting
aid.
1t also authorizes President
Eisenhower to spend UP to 5000
million in emergency economic

now finds itself needing SAT
million to complete the current
fiscal year but has been promised
only SIT million by the House
subcommittee. The SIT million,
Mr.. Summerfield said, is the
exact amount of the increased
cost which Congress itself au-
thorized last year in voting for
automatic pay raises for en-
ployes.
AS for the overall deficiency.
Mr.. Summerfield insisted that
the department cannot be justly
blamed. He recalled that for
several years he has tried un-
successfully to have Congress
raise some postal rates so that
the department could operate
practically on self supporting
basis instead Of running annual
deflcltS OF more than a na1 pil-
lion dollars.
This is not the fault Of the
public or Of the department." he
asserted. 1T Is the fault Of
Congress and the magazine
lobby and the third class mail
lobby which have practically
frozen postal rates on first, Sec
ond and third class mail all
these too many years. If we are
forced to drastically curtail it
will not be the fault of the Post
General"
Much of the SAT million, he
said, can be accounted for not
by pay raises but by huge
in volume of mail and
department services to expand
ing communities. He displayed
numerous charts to show how
costs and activities
have swelled since 1852.
