Tendency to Economic on Aid
Seen Among Some in Congress
CONSTANTINE BROWN

President Eisenhower will
have his greatest fight Of the
last six years to get through
the Senate even half Of the
appropriations he is asking
for foreign economic and
military aid.
Although the general pub
lie is apathetic - especially
where international problems
are concerned - there is a
feeling among Republican
and Democratic Senators
that whoever these days
supports another large
expenditure to help foreign
countries had better not
show his face at the next
elections" A similar senti-
ment appears to prevail in
the House, where 1t is said
that President Eisenhower
and his Budget Bureau can
balance the budget by cut
ting drastically into the big
wheel Of cheese-foreign aid"
There is a general feeling
among the legislators that If
it is essential to have econ
omy this year, the savings
should come from assistance
to friendly and neutral coun-
tries rather than from the
gigantic programs prepared
by those solonS who believe
IN socialism in our time. The
same feeling prevailed in
years past, but the foreign
assistance programs were
continued in compliance with
the administrators requests.
The situation will be some
what more difficult this year
because the number of legiS-
lators who lean strongly
toward an America well
fare state has substantially
increased in the 86th Con-
gress.
1t is true that in the SEN
ate many individual opinions
are far less important than
in the past, since Majority
Leader johnson is ruling the
Senate with an iron hand.
Major decisions - including
occasionally the time to be
allowed for the Senators to
'let off some steam" and
have their remarks printed
in the Record-are decided
in the Democratic cloak
room, where the able major
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-02-20

ity leader makes deals and
accepts compromises.
The well Of the Senate no
longer affords room for fine
oratory and heated debates
In which the Senator with
the best and most convincing
arguments could sway the
votes and bring about either
defeat or passage. At present.
the Senate of the United
States is no longer the great
est debating gathering in the
world. No votes are swayed.
The decision on what bill
shall pass or be defeated is
taken beforehand in the
cloakroom. OF course, dis
senting votes are not frowned
upon, are in order so long as
the majority leader is certain
that the legislation he wants
to pass Cor reject) is not
endangered.
There are, Of course, a
number Of experienced mem
bers who, in the words of the
ads of a popular cigarette,
think for themselves" They
are not particularly alarmed
at the present trend in the
greatest debating body in the
world, which they consider
only temporary. These men
believe that when measures
with such far-reaching con-
sequences as foreign aid are
discussed there will be less
partiSanship and more states
manship involved. After all,
foreign aid is not a Repuhli-
can measure. 1t was dreamed
up in its present form by the
Democrats IL years ago.

Nixon and Anderson Groups Viewed
As Principal Forces, and Cooperative

ing and able TO take up an
even larger share than here
tofore in directing the ma
tional Republican Party,
No one in the administra-
ton, of course, is talking
openly Of the new lines Of
practical authority now de-
veloping in the absence OF
Mr.. Dulles. And there Is, OF
course, nothing formalized In
this fresh pattern Of actual
power. Indeed, there is gen.
uine desire on every hand TO
believe. as the President him
self believes, that Mr.. Dulles
is far from through as the
directing head Of foreign
policy.
But even assuming the
most favorable prospect for
Mr.. Dulles illness, and even
assuming his continued abil-
ity to control foreign affairs,
this much is all too obvious:
He cannot possibly continue
to contribute to the inner
stability Of the administra-
ton over the whole broad
scope Of its work. quite apart
from foreign affairs, as he
has done so long.
Much new and varied re-
sponsibility therefore will fall
upon the Anderson group and
the Nixon group. The Ander-
son circle already totally con-
trolls and expresses the ad-
ministration's attitudes on all
monetary matters. 1t is likely
now to broaden its field OF
action to assume response
bility for practically every
part of the internal, or essen

He said three of these mo-

would make possible world
wide communications by signal
relay from one to the other.
Mr.. Silverstein disclosed that
two new rockets, Vega and
Centaur, will be used in future
space probes. They were
classed as advanced boosters
and will be three-stage rockets
capable of DRIFTING 7,500-pound
satellites 300 miles above the

the job Of acting as chief

heretofore done. This Mr..
Nixon must do even If. hap

would be unwelcome. And
should that heart not prove
equal TO the extraordinary
demands being made upon it.
thus requiring the appoint
ment of another Secretary,
the Vice Presidents practical
responsibilities would be-
come nothing short Of i'm
mense.
Then he would become, in
fact, a kind of super-Secre-
tary of State over whoever
was appointed to that post.
For, as Mr.. Dulles himself
has so clearly shown, a sue
cessful Secretary of State
must carry Congress with
him, though it sometimes be
a reluctant Congress, even
before he carries the allies
with him.
No possible successor to
Mr.. Dulles could come in this

to catch up with all our
gravely complicated affairs
about the world while stimuli
