Mansfield Urges End
To U.S. Foreign Aid
WASHINGTON (EF)—Sen. Mike Mansfield (D.-Mont.) proposed yesterday halting all
foreign economic aid other than loans within three years.
He also urged reductions in military aid and said secrecy labels should be stripped
from the amounts given each country.
Mansfield, assistant Democratic leader, said "time is runn

Last Request
WASHINGTON (I?) The last
decision Donald A. Quarles made;'
before he died a week ago was.
to make an appeal to President
Eisenhower to push development ,
of an atomic-powered airplane. '
This word was given yesterday
by Lt. Gen. Roscoe C. Wilson, Air
Force deputy chief of staff for
development.
Wilson said the final technical
obstacle to construction of an ex—
perimental nuclear-powered plane
has been overcome. This, he said,'
involved shielding of crew and
equipment from radiation.
He declined to say how the
shielding problem was solved. But
he said that if go-ahead funds are
obtained "it shouldn't take many
years for the nuclear-powered air
plane to be in the air."
Wilson digressed from a pre
pared speech before the Aviation
Writers Assn. to make mention of
Quarles, deputy secretary of de
fense who died in his sleep , last
Friday of a heart ailment.
Wilson said that "Secretary
Quarles' last decision was that the
Defense Department and the
Atomic Energy Commission would
appeal to the President for the
power to expedite nuclear aircraft
development."

program must be drastically cur
tailed if it is to continue.
Unless this is done, and eco
nomic aid is shifted from gifts
to loans, he told the Semite, the
next session of Congress "may
well see a tide of public reaction
so strong it will swamp the en
tire undertaking."
Most of Mansfield's proposal,
except for elimination of sec
recy classifications, would go
into effect July 1, 1960, al
though it would be written into
the bill carrying funds for the
year starting next July 1.
President Eisenhower has asked
,'53.9 billion for all foreign aid
next year.
The principal proposal would
require the administration to sub
mit next year a detailed plan for
progressive yearly reduction of
grants or gifts for defense sup
port and economic assistance.
Mansfield specified such grants
shoulcl reach "zero for each
such nation over a maximum
three-year period."
Military aid, for which the
President is asking $1 billion for
the year starting July 1, would
be continued under, Mansfield's
proposal, but on a reduced basis.
Grants for defense supports,
for which Eisenhower is asking
835 million dollars for fiscal 1960,
would be eliminated entirely by
June 30, 1963.

Steel Talks
Now Emphasize
Basic Issues
NEW YORK (I?) Steel wage
talks that could have a strong
bearing on the nation's economy
got down to bedrock issues yes
terday.
"We're really in basic discus
sions now," said David J. McDon
ald, United Steelworkers presi
dent, after a two-hour bargaining
session between four-man man
agement and union teams.
R. Conrad Cooper, chief indus
try negotiator, said the teams had
"good exploratory discussions."
But as the talks recessed until
Tuesday, neither would elaborate
on what was discussed.
The union announced a- the be
ginning of the talks May 5 that
it would seek substantial wage in
creases and shorter working hours
among other proposals.
Failure to reach an agreement
by June 30 when the present
three-year contract expires could
lead to a strike by half a million
steelworkers and cut off 90 per
I cent of the nation's steel produc
i tion.
President Eisenhower has coun
seled against any settlement that
would spur inflation through steel
price increases. The industry has
proposed a one-year freeze on
wages and other benefits to hold
the line against inflation.
