May Offer Amendment
AS the debate began. Senator
Ellenuder, Democrat Of Louisi-
ana, said he may offer an
amendment as a Iast-ditch
effort OF raise the Army's man
power to 100000.
Senator Ellender lost by mar
row margins on previous efforts
in the committee to put a 900,-
900 manpower floor under the
Army. At the same time the
group added $43 million to raise
the Marine Corps to 100000
$4,000 above the Presidents
recommendations.
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen told newsmen 1.-The
President is vigorously opposed
to any floor on the Marine
Corps because it will tie the
hands Of the Budget Bureau
and the President. The floor
pushes costs up considerably
The Senate bill carries
slightly more than 1895 billion
OF new funds plus $3.50 million
in transfers,
The new cash would be split
this way: More than SITS
billion for the Air Force: about
$ll.3 billion for the Navy and
Marines; just under SOS billion
Tor the Army, and more than
$l.2 billion for various activities
directly under the Secretary Of
Defense.
Active duty officers and men
would be $4,000 for the Air
Force, 100000 for the Navy,
100000 for the Marine Corps
and $4,000 for the Army.
Both the Senate committee
and the House also put a floor
under the Army reserve forces
at 100000 and Army National
Guard at 100000. These were
10 per cent above Pentagon
requests.

Johnson Hews
1oOwnLine.
On LEGISLATION
By CECIL HOLLAND
Star stan Writer,

Senate Democratic Leader
johnson intends to pursue his
own legislative way, unswayed
by Republican attacks and
criticism from liberals within
his own party.
He made this clear in an in
terview in which he also en-
phasized that he will not un-
dertake to pass legislation
which has little chance Of
White House approval simply
to create party issues for the
1860 presidential and congress
sional elections.
The overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic Congress. in Senator
Johnson's view, can best serve
the party by enacting as con-
structiVe legislation as possible
in the national interest.
Defends Congress
Nor does he admit for a
minute, as critics within his
own party contend, that the
86th Congress has been laggard
so far in the first session. De-
spite what National Democratic
Chairman Paul M. Butler
thinks, Senator johnson be-
lieves the Congress already has
made a good record ana will
make a better one before the
session ends.
With regard to the complaint
Of Mr.. Butler and other Demo-
cratic liberals that the Demo-
cratic leadership has adapted
itself too much to the ad-
ministration's thinking on GER
tain legislation, Senator John
son said:
I'm this world. none of US
ever gets everything that he
wants. I think the real test
is whether we take what we
have and do the best we can
with it,"
Senator Johnson said the
Republican attacks on the 86th
Congress as "a spender" was
an effort to tear down its rec
ord in view of national polls
showing it was held in the
highest favor of any Congress
in its history. The June Gal
lup poll, the Senator said,
showed 81 per cent of the peo-
pie approved the Democratic
Congress as compared to SO
per cent in the Roosevelt land
slide in 1886.
Sees G. o. P. Desperation
THE Republicans are des-
perate because they are con-
tinuing to drop in the national
polls" the Senator commented.
You can see how desperate
they are every Tuesday morn
ing as they leave the White
House after meeting with the
President.
mo longer is this a meeting
where programs for the best
interest of the country are
worked out. 1t has turned into
a partisan meeting where the
White House steps are used to
propaganda and smear the
Congress.
r. ''They have become so des-
perate now that their political
committees and political man
ayers and their political news
papers are trying to create di-
vision in the Democratic party

Senator Mansfield said he
hopes President Eisenhower and
Mr.. Herter do not permit the
G. o. P. objections to Mr..
Bohlen on this score to interfere
with the appointment of the
Ambassador to the Soviet di-
vision.
The transfer would not re-
quire Senate approval and could
be carried out over the objec-
tions Of Senators DirkSen,
Bridges and others if Mr.. Eisen-
hover and Mr.. Herter chose
that course.
13 Voted Against BOhlen
Senators Dirksen and Bridges
were among Is Senators who
voted against Mr.. Bohlen's con-
f1rmation as Ambassador to
Russia in 1858.
Five other Republicans who
opposed the nomination in the
climax of a spectacular politi-
cal battle remain in the Senate
They are Senators Hicken-

ter of Arizona, chairman of the

Shak of Idaho.
Senators Goldwater and
Dworehak, however, are re-
ported to have changed theil
views and now support Mr.
Bohlen. .
Talks of Retiring
Mr.. Bohlen has made it clear
that when he completes his
assignment in the Philippines
he intends to retire unless he
is given a top-level job in the
department. He has indicated
he does not want another am
bassadorial post because of the
expenses involved.
Mr.. Bohlen currently is en-
gagged in delicate negotiations

of friction between this coun-
try and the Philippines.
Mr.. Herter told his news con-
ference last week that severa
months ago he had discussed 9

had "a real admiration" The

He enjoyed the bowling

But we must constantly
strive to better this facet of
our activities and 60 even far
ther, for this is the chief pre-
requisite and guarantee that
the Croatian Fraternal Union
will not die out, nor our ma
tionality disappear.
Drive Must Succeed
The building and establish
ment of a permanent Scholar
ship Fund will also be of ines
timable benefit to the Soci-
ETY. itself.
The more scholarship
grants it will be in position to
award, the greater will be the
Society's popularity. Our
young members will look with
pride upon the Society as
their benefactress and be
grateful to it just as they are
grateful to their parents who
enrolled them into it's men,

days.
The author Of these lines is
deeply convinced that this
campaign will succeed and
that one day the Scholarship
Fund will be so strong as to
be able to support an ever
larger number of worthy and
needy students with increas-
ingly larger financial assis-
tance.
What Members Can Do
Our lodges and our nests
should place high upon their
order of business at meetings
the question of contributions
to the Scholarship Fund in as
great amounts and as fire.
quently as possible.
There are many ways of
doing this, if the good will
and understanding exist.
Special social affairs, raf-
fling of various items, small
house parties, picnics, ETC.,
can be arranged for the
benefit of the fund.
America is the richest
country on earth. There are
all kinds of appeals, collec-
tions and solicitations going
on daily for all kinds of pur-
poses, over the radio, televi-
sion and the newspapers.
Why can't we conduct our
own solicitation through our
own official publication, the
Zajednicar?
Let us respond to this ap-
peal better than we have SO
far. Let us become enthused
for the project, for it is wor-
thy of our enthusiasm. This
can only bring great benefit
and higher esteem to our peo-
pie.
