WASHINGTON General
Dwight Eisenhower has made a
dramatic protest against cutting
Army's funds. In face of Eis
enhower's protest, a Senate-House
budgetary sub-committee veiled
for a $6 billion slash in President
Truman's $37 1 / 2 billion budget.
Just befor e the final sub-commit
tee vote, the Chief of Staff rush
ed to the Capitol. There he pro
tested that any reduction of Army
funds would cripple defense
plans.
WASHINGTON— The National
Coal Association issued a warn
ing last night, The Association
said that a new bituminous coal
strike is inevitable by July first
unless John L. Lewis agrees to
tglve up the miners' welfare-fund,.
or unless Congress passes a re
medial law.
WASHINGTON —T b e United
States delegate to the United Na
tions— Warren Austin— has told
the Security Council_ for the first
time in public, just why the U. S.
insists that the proposed U-N arms
commission must not encroach
on the atomic energy commission.
Austin sail that th e resolution
setting up the arms commission
calls for information on armed
forces of the United Nations. Last
December, Soviet delegate Andrei
Gromyko 'said fillet ony such
troop census should .include full
information on all types of arma
ment, including atomic weapons.
Thit still is the view of the Sov
iet Union. Hence, said Auitin,
this is the reason the United
States' feels that the jurisdiction
df the two commissions must be
clearly define' now. The United
States, Austin • emplitsized, wills
make no further concessions.
