West German keystone into the ramparts of Western defense
Communist aggression
- -
After final talks tomorrow and
still unsettled points; they are due
Monday to sign a peace contract
with West German Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer granting nearly
full sovereignty to -48 znillio Ger
mans living on this ,side of the
Iron Curtain.
Then they will fly to Paris to
sign an accompanying ..European
Defense Community treaty Tues
day that will put some -400;000
rearmed German troops into a
million-man, one-uniform. Euro
pean army. Terms of the EDC
treaty were completed at Stras
bourg today by ministers of the
six participating nations West
Germany, France, Italy, Belgium,
The Netherlands an d Luxem
bourg.
In this weekend of decision, the
Big Three foreign ministers are
meeting on German soil for the
first time since World War 11.
U.S. Secretary of State Ache
sOn, British Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden and French For
eign Minister Robert Schuman
are giving official approval to an
accord denounced by Communist
East Germans as a threat of civil
war and by Socialist West Ger
mans as a hazard to ultimate
unification of the nation.
Adenauer's government coali
tion suppressed _the domestic op
position today, for the moment
at least, by voting down Socialist
demands for a full-dress debate
on the treaty in Parliament. The
Socialists charged Adenauer was
_trying to bind the Germans to an
accomplished fact without telling
them what the consequences
would be. Adenauer's spokesmen
countered with a broadcast state
ment that the text will be made
public after the signing and Par
liament will have full opportunity
to debate its points when it comes
up for ratification.

Slashed Aid Bill
WASHINGTON, - May '23 (AP)
—The House tonight passed a
$6,162,600,000 foreign. aid bill,
after cutting $1,737,400,000 from
President Truman's requests. The
measure now goes to the Senate.
Temporarily dorninated by Re
publicans, the House sliced $726,-
500,000 on the floor in addition to
$1,010,900,000 which the Foreign
Affairs • Committee previously
trimmed from the - President's
$7,900,000,000 program.
Backers of Sen. Taft (R-Ohio)
lead the forces demanding the
cuts. They overrode more' moder
ate reductions proposed by sup
porters of Gen. Dwight D. Eisen
hower. Democratic absenteeism
gave the Republicans control dur
ing crucial voting today and yes
terday.
The cuts reduced military aid
to Europe by $829,000,000 'and
trimmed a total of $908,400,000
from . economic aid.- for Europe
and the Far East.
The explosive Middle East and
Latin America were left un
touched.
The administration was unable
to salvage the original bill, de
spite a warning from Speaker
Rayburn that the United States
had lost air superiority to Russia.
