kind to Communist Cuba.

that puts us in a straitjacket "and
makes it mere difficult to do our

this amendment come out:"

vides money also for such things
as the Peace Corps and, monetary
funds not under Rusk's depart
ment, was slasliPsl $1.4, billion to
$5.9 billion.
INITIAL REACTION- in the
committee to Rusk's ;plea indi
cated that a substantial part of
the money would be restored, but
not all of it. Rusk conceded that
'There is not too much prospect.
of getting the full athounr re

The committee endesi hearings

plete surprise to the administra

for the closed committee hearing
contained no mention,of them.
But Rusk's comments tolnews-
Men before he went in to testify
made it clear that he iimuld make
a strong plea for deletion of the
amendments, particularly the es
pecially, restrictive of e.
The secretary said the adminis

of the shipments "with a number
of countries and I am; very much
encouraged by the reisponses we
have been getting." ..
"I don't think we should by
legislation concentrate all our
national interest or; this one
point, - he said.
Rusk said all the witty possible
between the United States and its
allies is needed to dead with "Ber
