Our foreign aid program may be
rejuvenated by a novel proposal
written into the new lava Point
-Four Youth Corps.
Sensing the relatively unex-
plored opportunity for enthusiast
tic Americans just out Of college
to participate in the economic aid
program and the potential con-
tribution they could make abroad.
Representative ReusS, Democrat
of Wisconsin. sponsored the inno-
vation in the recently signed mu-
tual security law. A corps of sew
eral thousand young Americans
are envisioned to serve voluntarily
at a soldiers pay in public and
private technical aid missions in
the underdeveloped countries. The
President is to select a university
or governmental research
group to make specific recommen-
dations for the formation of the
Youth Corps. Most of the funds
for this study will come from pri-
vate foundations, with $4,000
from the government if Congress
passes the appropriation later.
Many critics of the foreign aid
program have pointed to its ex-
cesSive emphasis on military aid
guns. tanks and super-highways-
or the "militarism -encased-in con-
crete approach" Others have pub
licized the impact of poorly Sc
lected personnel overseas on the
people we are trying to help.
Encouraged by the successful
experience of private organizations
using young people in underdevel-
oped areas, Mr.. ReuSs believes that
more trained young Americans &C
tually out in the field, teaching
modern farming methods, operat-
ing malaria control, maternity
and child care programs, setting
up rural schools, and helping in
village development projects like
elementary sanitation and water
supply, can prove to the peoples
OF Asia and Africa that the United
States is genuinely interested pri-
marily in their welfare and not
merely in our defense.

Western studies of the Soviet
foreign aid program indicate that
it is small and tough by United
States standards, effective by most
criteria. and subject to the same
blunderS which are an occupa-
tional hazard of the do-gooder
abroad.
During the last five years the
Soviets have offered $3.2 billion
in foreign aid credits and grants,
as far as the State Department
can learn. During this same
period the United States COM
parable total was $5.7 billion.
Some rs per cent of the Soviet
total was to be used for economic
aid projects like the tunnels and
an airport in Kabul, Afghanistan;
a textile plant in Cambodia and
a glass factory in Iraq. The re-
mainder, some $3.50 million, went
for military equipment that was
purchased by the United Arab
Republic. Indonesia, Iraq, Afghan
iStan and Yemen.
The Soviets' first gestures in
foreign aid were monumental
projects" like paving the streets
of Kabul and establishing a bus
system.
Burmese Decline Projects
The technique soured in Burma,
where Khrushchev and Bulganin
promised series of gifts" in the
course of their visit in 1855. The
Burmese declined to accept the
projects-which included a hos
pital, technical school, outdoor
stadium and businessman's hotel,
as gifts and offered to pay for
them with rice.
Three of the projects are being
completed this year. The hotel has
200 rooms but it is built 6 miles
outside the city of Rangoon and
has no air-conditioning, limita-
tions that have caused it to be
looked on with some doubt by the
natives. The technical school is
so large that Burma doesn't have
teachers to staff it. The hospital,
built in Taungyyi, was designed
with the contagion ward next to
the maternity ward and the tuber-
culosis ward over a swamp.
These projects cost $12.5 million

TOKYO, R = Japan's Ambas-
sador to Washington expressed
fear Friday that cancellation of
President Eisenhower's visit to
Japan might push relations with
America back to Remember
Pearl Harbor."
Koichiro Asakai said upon ar
rival in Tokyo that Japan's inter-
national prestige has been hurt by
the continuing riots.
II am afraid that the recent
series of riotous events have
plummeted Japan-U. S. relations
to an alarming state. That abom-
Unable memory of Japan's attack
on Pearl Harbor still remains deep
in the minds of the Americans.
1t is easy to bring the relations
back to the state of Remember
Pearl Harbor," he said.
Under the circumstances it is
difficult to convince the Amer
leans that various mass move
ments in Japan are only directed
against Prime Minister Kishi and
the new security treaty and not
against the United States"

CGP Plans Fall Start
For AII-Number DioIinq

All-number dialing will be

Potomac Telephone Co. an
nounced today.
Affected will be 1905 sub
scribers in the Springfield and
Fairfax communities of Vir-
ginia. There are no immediate
plans for extending the system
elsewhere in the area.
Designated as All-Number
Calling (A-NC) by the COM
pany, the new system drops the
use of the two-letter prefixes
in dialing. Instead, subscribers
having the A-NC liStings will
be reached by dialing seven
digits.
For example, 1850 customers
whose phone numbers now be-
gin with Fleetwood 4 will have
their numbers changed to begin
with 45l. The same three digits
also will be the first numbers
| for 300 subscribers now listed as
Elgin 4, and 70 now having
Hamilton /. Also to be changed
will be l60 Glenview 5 num-
bers, leading off with ASS, and

will start with 461.
Some time in the future, the
Nations telephones all will be
converted to All-Number Call

because rapid expansion is de-

blnations of suitable prefiXes
in the present system. A-NC

quate for all growth during

cialS believe.
Tests have shown that, for
short periods of time, the
digit numbers are as
easily remembered as the pre-
fix and five number. Average
speed also is a bit faster with
seven numbers.
Need for eventual conversion
of all phones is shown in the
steady increase of telephones
Twenty years ago, there we're
