'Ike' Fights Cut In European Aid
Washington—(U.P.)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower warned Congress today that a $1 billion cut in foreign aid will be “seriously felt” in the defense of Europe.
The retiring North Atlantic treaty commander said, however, that Congress must balance the risk of attack against "the equally obvious risks of ruinous spending."
Eisenhower's warning was given in a cable to Chairman Tom Connally (D-Tex.) of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
It was disclosed shortly after Chairman Richard B. Russell (D-Ga.) of the Senate Armed Services committee also asked for Eisenhower's views on the Foreign aid program which has been trimmed from $7,900 million to $6,900 million
And the Eisenhower warning was disclosed after President Truman voiced concern at a news conference about Congressional cuts in foreign aid and national defense spending.
aid and national Mr. Truman said that if the foreign aid program is carried through successfully and the economy is kept on an even keel there would be no third world war.
Connally's committee has voted a $1. billion cut in the mutual security program. The program now is being considered by Russell's committee.
Eisenhower's cable to Connally said his headquarters does not compute specific dollar figures for the military aid program to Europe. He based his answer on the assumption that the cost of the program was figured correctly and "on an austerity basis, and that it was designed to meet a temporary emergency in which this country's Allies would also do their full part.
Granting all that, he said, any cut in the program would tend to cut or retard the buildup of forces under his command.
under his commitment. "It is quite clear that in terms of
impact on our military programs, an aggregate reduction of the order of $1 billion would be heavily and seriously felt," Eisenhower said.

UN Fliers Stage Biggest Air Raid Of Korean War
Seoul, Korea- (U.P)—Allied planes in the biggest single attack of the Korean war today smashed two square miles in the ancient walled town of Suan, a major Communist supply base 35 miles southeast of the North Korean capital at Pyongyang.
Four flights of 5th Air Force and Marine fighter-bombers struck at dawn with 12,000 gallons of flaming napalm. Other planes swooped across the blazing target area all day and dropped hundreds of tons of bombs and napalm.
By nightfall the town was such a flaming shambles pilots could not find another upright major building. The 5th Air Force at 5 p.m. reported 165 supply buildings destroyed and 18 damaged. A huge concentration of Red supplies including trucks, fuel and ammunition went up in flames.
Communist MIG-15 jet fighters swarmed southward from their Manchurian bases in a vain effort halt the attacks. American Sabre jets downed two of them and damaged a third.
Allied reconnaissance planes had watched Suan for more than a month while the Reds hauled in supplies.
