MEET ING

The second meeting of the
Village Board for January got
underway at $50 Tuesday night,
January 81. All Trustees were
pre- n t. President MaXey re-
ported to the Board that he had
suspended Officer Voolfolk for
10 days, beginning January Is,
after investigating complaint
that Voolfolk had beaten and
shot at King Nesbit. He stated
that he had received other COM
plants about Voolfolk since that
time and if he finds them to be
true. Voolfolk should be sus-
pended indefinitely.
Trustee Wilson did not ques-
ton the Presidents authority to-
suspend, but he did say in effect
that Voolfolk may have had
cause for his actions and that
he would like to have a hearing
on the matter. His wish was
granted.
Attorney Black reported to the
Board that all of the land in the
proposed drainage strip has beer
purchased, except one parcel
and this piece would be cleared
in about three weeks. He also
reo'orted that the title to the
Village Hall property would be
delivered in a few days.
The lid almost blew off when
Trustee Anderson, Chairman Of
the Water Committee, read a
letter from Water Supt Ingram
requesting that Mrs. Alberta
Chandler, senior water clerk, be
fired. He also read letter from
re Water Committee, recon-
mending the dismissal of Mrs.
Chandler, their reasons being
that after investigation, they had
found her incompatible and out
of harmony with the Supt

over the roster of newly elected
officers of various clubs in the

working in almost everything.

that a mere handful of people

Senate, Noting Peril to Free World.
Seen Likely to Restore Some Funds

House Appropriations Com
mittee would be the need to
increase substantially the
American ground fore es.
Tables produced TO the
House and Senate commit
tees show that while the up
keep of each American CT
costs the country upwards
Of $500, the Korean or the
Chinese or the Turkish
soldiers maintenance is less
than 10. per cent Of that
figure.
The real trouble between
the executive and the legis-
lative bodies in Washington
in the last few years has
been that, after the appro-
priations have been granted.
the legislative lost all con-
troll of the way they are be-
ing spent. The executive has
the power to re-allocate
sums to the flve corners of
the globe, regardless Of what
the needs Of each individual
nation may be. To remedy
the situation. there have
been suggestions on the part
of our legislators that they
appropriate funds for each
of the recipients individually
and that the executive shall
have the power to divert
them to other areas only in
a limited amount not exceed
ing, for instance, 10 per cent.
This solution has been
successfully opposed by the
State Department. 1t insists
that the world situation is
dynamic and that under AZ
number Of circumstances it
may be necessary to- reduce
military support to one coun-
try in order to help another.
Such operations are kept top
secret. Not even the ranking
members Of the interested
congressional committees are
permitted to know how the
taxpayers money is being
spent once the appropria-
tions have been approved.
These transfers frequently
dictated by the whims of the
bureaucratS have produced
havoc among our most faith
full allies. For instance, last
August President Eisenhower
pledged himself in q personal
letter to President Syngman

CONSTANTINE BROWN
On Cutting Foreign Aid Funds

Chinese-North Korean Com
munists who have been
provided with the latest typo
OF firepower. In exchange,
the ROK government would
have been able to reduce the
number of its troops on
active list and use the resi-
due Of the manpower for
civilian enterprises.
Nearly one year has passed
since this promise was given.
According TO American per-
sonnel returned from South
Korea, the ROK forces have
received no modern weapons.
The few Honest Johns and
heavy mortars sent over are
for the use Of the two Ameri-
can divisions in that country.
According to the same sources.
they are barely sufncient
really to strengthen our own
forces. The reason given for
this failure to keep a solemn
pledge is lack Of funds,
Congress has been stingy."
AS q matter Of fact Con-
gress is extremely mindful Of
the Importance Of maintain
ing adequate preparedness in
the Far East where, If the
chips are down, trained man
power backed by improved
conventional weapons will
have to play the foremost
role. Privately 1t was adj
mitted to some legislators
that I'VE had to take care Of
other areas first" Congress
has also provided adequate
sums for the general Far
Eastern area, which includes
Pakistan, a country which
for centuries provided the
best fighters for the British.
Yet only q trickle went there.
The real reason why the PAX
istani Army is so sadly lack
ing in hardware needed for
its strongly anti-C Communist
fighting men is that such an
action on our part would
offend India's Prime Minister
Nehru, who has ideas of his
own concerning Pakistan.
But despite this juggling Of
funds after appropriations
for military aid have been
approved. the consensus is
that the drastic cuts by the
House will be extensively re-
stored by the Senate, because
it is felt in that body that we
should have ground forces
available at least in one por-
tion of the Communist
threatened areas. The pres
ent, strength in Europe does
not exceed II divisions.
