contemplated that Congress
would consider all the proposed
foreign aid funds through the
regular appropriations process.
The Kennedy request, how
ever, calls for funds to be pro-
vided through the backdoor
spending route and more of
the same for each of the four
years after 1862. The Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
has approved the request. 1t re-
mains to be seen what changes
will be made on the Senate
floor, then by the House, and
finally in conference.
The program is going to be
examined closely. The President
has candidly admitted these
failings in the program: waste,
duplication, delays, lack of COM
prehensive planning, lack of
competent career servants to
administer it, and lack of coor-
dination with other nations.
The President says, however,
that for every example of
waste, there are hundred ex-
amples of prudent and success
full projects-that, for every ma
ton cited as no better off as a
result of our aid, there are a
dozen nations which have
strengthened their economies
and resisted both external and
internal attacks, with the help
of American goods, food, and
dollars"
Playing With Outer
Mongolia is a Red satellite, a
province of Soviet Russia, and
l am shocked at the suggestion
that the Administration is con-
sidering our giving it diplomatic
recognition. Recognition would
imply acceptance Of the fiction
that this Red satellite is IAN in
dependent nation" 1t would do
great damage to the U. S. posi-
ton in the Far East and would
represent a form of appease-
ment. 1t Is feared that the real
aim of the left-wing forces sup
porting Outer Mongolia's recog-
milton is not to obtain "a lis
tening post" as claimed, but
to soften up the American peo-
pies resistance to recognizing
Red China.

Comments From Capitol Hill
by
Observation-Disclosures


were designated as "redevelop-
ment areas" by the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture. AS result of this decision
these including all OF
Washington and Garrett Coun
ties are now eligible to receive
Federal grants and loans for de-
veloping industry and establish
ing needed public facilities.
Let me emphasize that classi.
fication of a redevelopment
area under the 1861 Area Rede,
velopment Act does not mean
automatic aid. Responsibility
rests with elected officials as
well as all citizens to prepare
dynamic and progressive plans
for economic growth in the
areas.
AS the Redevelopment Act
specifies, qualified areas must
first gain State and Federal ap.
proval of an overall program
of economic development before
consideration can be given to
financial assistance for specific
projects designed to create per.
manent employment opportuni.
ties.
Thus it Is now up to all resi-.
dents of the redevelopment areas
in Maryland to join together in
formulating plans and carrying
those plans into action for the
economic development and con,
solicitation of the Sixth District
My Washington office has al
ready received a number of in,
quiries from industrial concerns
interested in possible relocation
in designated redevelopment
areas.
AS an example of what this
program can do for the Sixth
District, let me mention the re.
cent case of Gassville, Ark. That
low-income rural area in the
Ozark Mountains received the
first assistance provided to any
redevelopment area under the
new ARA program.
A loan of $31, 1000 and a grant
of $4,000 helped to finance a
water system in the small town
which will make possible the
operation of an area-financed
shirt factory that will in time
employ 1900 persons.
In the weeks and months
ahead l want to see loans and
grants from this program
awarded to areas in our Sixth
District. But it will take imagi
native planning on your part
and deep faith and interest ir
your communities.
/ have often thought, as
know you have, of the vast pc
tential development that exists
in our counties. This area rede
velopment program now pre-
sents an opportunity to trans
form our potential energy into
active, far-reaching progress.

Sen. J. Glenn Beall:
President Kennedy on Berlin

President Kennedy ON Berlin
Last Tuesday evening, over
the TV and radio networks,
President Kennedy reviewed the
Berlin situation, and pointed out
that the best possible assurance
of world peace would be for us
to be strong. He outlined plans
for building up our military
might. 1t was a thoughtful, re-
Elective talk. In case of a ma
tional emergency, party lines al
ways disappear. We will all give
whatever support is necessary.
To pay the cost of the mill
tary build-up, we will have to
tighten our belts and give up
unnecessary spending. The sym
pathy of the American people is
with the President. They hope
he will surround himself with
seasoned, experienced men on
whom he can depend for sound
advice. This is no time for AGA
demic, amateurish advice.
Subject of Debates-TWo fea-
lures of President Kennedy's
foreign aid request assure that
it will be given q rough time.
One is the very size of the re-
quest. The other is a proposal to
bypass for the next five years
the purse-string controls of the
appropriations committee with
respect to a big part of foreign
aid spending.
Congress has granted for for
eign aid an average of $3.2 bill
lion a year for the years 1855
through 1861. President Ken
nedy has requested $4.8 billion
for 1862. In the original Eisen-
hover budget for 1862, it was

Sen. John M. Butler

Accentuate the Positive-Last
fall, during the Presidential
campaign, three different Fed
eral employees attempted to
place stickers on their cars
boosting a candidate. Super.
visors in their agencies handed
down three different rulings:
Cd that an employee could
place a sticker on his car at all
times; (2) that an employee
could not place sticker on his
car at any time; 80 that an
employee could place it on his
car except when going to and
from work.
Because of such contradictory
neutrality-suspicious. of the Hatch
Political Activities Act, l have
introduced a bill which spells
out positively activities in which
a government employee can
legitimately engage without
fear of reprisal. OF course,
some rules are needed. Gov
eminent employees should be
prevented from using their posi-
ton to influence the casting of
votes or to perpetuate one party
or the other. And ASSESS.
ments" on government officials
and subordinates should be
strictly forbidden.
Approximately three million
Americans are fully subject to
the Hatch Act. If we consider
that last November's election
was decided by only 10000
votes, we can understand how
important is the Interpretation
of the act. How many govern.
ment employees failed to exer.
else their legal rights last year
to engage in political activities?
For example, it was reported
to my office that several Fed.
eral workers walked out of the
Absentee Voters Bureau in
Washington when asked for
their names for fear their jobs
would be jeopardized!
My bill will make the follow
ing activities clearly legitimate
for government workers: Cd
attendance at political meetings,
conventions and caucuses as
well as membership in political
clubs; (2) the right to express
views at these meetings on any
political candidate or subject
under discussion; CD the right
to contribute money to political
parties, to wear political but
tons and to display pictures and
posters in their homes and on
their automobiles. The legisla.
ton will also erase the mistak-
en- notion that the wives and
husbands of government en-
ployees are prohibited from ac-
lively engaging in political ac-
tivities.
l have been informed by the
chairman of the Subcommittee
on Privileges and Elections that
public hearings will soon be
forthcoming on my bill. | am
hopeful that this legislation will
encourage government en-
