Marshall Asks All Or Nothing For European Aid
Washington—(UP)—Secretary of State George C. Marshall opened his fight for a $8,300,000,000 down-payment on the European recovery program today with this firm challenge to congress—put up what's needed to do the job "or don't undertake it at all."
In plain and carefully-chosen words, the gray-haired soldier-statesman warned the lawmakers that the alternatives to an adequate program were intense economic distress and social and political upheavals which could well wind up in more dictatorships and eventually in a third world war.
a third world "Our national security will be seriously threatened," Marshall continued. "We shall in effect live in an armed camp, regulated and controlled."
Investment In Peace
Marshall testified before the senate foreign relations committee as the first administration witness for the plan he conceived seven months ago, and which he described today as "an investment in peace."
He told the senators that the $6-800,000,000 requested for the 15-month period beginning April 1 was a rock-bottom estimate—that it was not an "asking" figure based on the assumption congress would cut it.
"Either undertake to meet the requirements of the problem or don't undertake it at all."
Wild Require Sacrifices
Marshall did not side-step the impact of the program on the American economy. But he said that it would require sacrifices today in order that we could enjoy security and peace tomorrow. But to abandon the 270,000,000 people of western Europe to the threats of hunger, poverty, desperation and resulting chaos would ultimately cost the United States much more.
Marshall, who has met Soviet obstructionism directly at Moscow, New York and London in less than one year, dotted his remarks with references to Russian "aggravation and destructive policies." But he said that the basic dislocations in the present European situation stem "directly from the war."
