More economic aid by North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
countries to less developed
areas In the free world was
urged by the NATO Parliamen-
tarians Conference here today.
Before adopting this reSolu-
tion, proposed by its economic
committee, the $50 legislators
from NATO nations heard
Senator JavitS. Republican Of
New York. the committee
chairman, declare that United
States foreign aid is not likely
to be increased in the near fu-
ture."
Senator Javits, nevertheless,
emphasized the responsibility
of NATo countries to combat
and counteract Soviet eco
nomie warfare no less than
Russian military threats.
Partnerships in Aid Seen
81 see imminently before
us partnerships between the
United States and other NATO
countries in economic aid pro-
grams which the United States
has been carrying in the main
in mapy Of the less developed
areas" Senator Javits told the
conference.
This is highly necessary as
I am convinced that the free
worlds ability to win the cold
war requires more economic aid
and technical assistance to the
less developed areas than can
be afforded now without such
partnerships. I am also con-
vinced that United States for
eign aid is not likely to be in
creased in the immediate fu-
ture. The hope for meeting the
need now rests in partnerships
between the United States and
NATO countries"
Senator JavitS' remarks
echoed those in the past few
days of high administration Of
ficials. including Secretary of
State Herter.
Commission Is Urged
The economic committees
resolutions adopted by the con-
ference requested the Organi-
Zation for European Economic
Cooperation to establish a
commission Of independent
economists from both devel-
oped countries.
This commission would "as-
sesS what is an acceptable rate
Of progress for the living stand
ards Of the peoples of the less
developed countries and the
capabilities of the more devel-
oped countries to increase their
aid"
Later today the conference
was to hear an address by
Paul-Henii Spaak, NATO Sec
retary general. 1t also planned
to discuss a report from it's
military committee and q
suggestion by Senator Jack
son, Democrat of Washington

calls for increases OF about z
to 13 cents an hour.
Discounts Pension
In rejecting the offer, the
union said "the only difference
between this latest company
offer and the earlier offers is
a small pension improvement
which the union actuary esti-
mates is worth less than one
third Of one cent"
Management's proposal or
work rules, the union said, is
the same old attempt to de-
prive steelworkers Of hard-wor
gains and projections. They
still are insisting upon a one
sided and unfair arbitration de-
signed to permit them to elm
mate jobs and benefits won by
the steelworkers. The only
changes are a stay of the SEN
tence until June, 1860, and
some additional language which
makes it clearer than ever be-
fore that their objective is tc
eliminate jobs and workers"
Insurance, pensions and sup
Elementary unemployment ben
efltS would be improved in the
first year of the contract pro-
posed by the companies. Wage
increases would take effect Oc-
tober /. 1860, and October /

Major Concession
A major concession by the
companies was the offer to pay
the employees share Of insur.
ance costs. They had insisted
on continuing joint company

surance as a matter of principle

would pay the maximum of 4

posed ending the cost-of living
clause, then offered adjust

contract.

Senator Heating. Republican

gain in debating the measure
before formal consideration by

strong support for the measure

Legislation provides that an
otherwise admissible confession
should not be barred in court
solely because of delay between
arrest and arraignment. 1t

Licking Conceded
Despite other business be-
fore the council, much OF the

leaders of the federation's
political action branch, the
Committee on Political Edu-
cation, conceded they had
taken a considerable licking in
Congress.
Much of the talk centered on
the role of House Speaker Sam
Rayburn. Some took the view
that Mr.. Rayburn may have
lost his grip as a Democratic
leader, while others, declining
to be quoted by name, won.
dered aloud whether he hac
deliberately let them down.
They held this view despite
the knowledge that Mr.. Ray
burn had personally Endorsed 9
less stringent measure than the
House adopted, and the realiza-
ton that House members were
under terrific pressure from
home districts for labor contro
legislation.
It was being pointed out fire.
quently in the post-morten
discussions that a total of 8:
Democrats, including "a from
Southern States, voted for the
tougher Eisenhower = Endorsed
bill. Another point mentioned
was that only four members
of the House delegation from
Mr.. Rayburn's home State o.
Texas voted labor's way.
