rWS WEEK III
WASHINGTON
With Sen. Arthur Vandenburg,
of Michigan, spearheading the
fight to bold the line, largely ai
the bill was unanimously report
ed by the senate foreign relations
committee, spotlight in Washing
ton is. on senate action on the
Marshall plan.
Although many amendments
have been offered including those
to enlarge functions of the plan
to cover political and military, as
well as economic action, obser
veirs here believe the bill will go
through the senate in much the'
form it was introduced. In the
house, however, there likely will
be a different story since oppo
ents backed by the majority1
house leadership are even seek- 1
ing an altogether new bill.
Senate debate has brought to
light many features of the plan
not altogether understood by the
general public, not the least im
portant of which is that no money
will be given or loaned to any
of the 16 European nations parti
cipating. Our government buys
goods and commodities in this
country, if possible, pays for ,
them here out of funds allocated
in the bill and then sends the :
goods to the needy countries
about half aa a gift and half as a
loan . . . but goods, not money.
Any money loaned to the coun
tries will be outside the Mar
shall plan.
Debate also brought out the
fact that the plan likely will con
tinue five and one-half to six
years, although the bill provides
for a continuing 4-year program
with $5,000,300,000 appropriated
for the first 12 months. During
life of the plan, expectancy is
that imports to this country from
participating countries will
amount to approximately 30 bil
lion dollars, will yield money
here and the money will be spent
for exports in addition to the
Marshall plan. These imports and
exports are to be supervised by
the government. So if the con
tinuing program runs to the ex
pected sum, say 20 billion dollars,
plus 30 billions in imports, the
agency handling the plan will be
involved with something like 50
billion dollars.
This means a huge govern
ment purchasing and distributing
agency with hundreds of em
ployees likely occupying a whole
office building and with experts
employed to buy. directly so it
will be one of the biggest custom
ers of business in the world.
Other points brought out in de
bate are? only five per cent of
our total production will be used
for the plan; exports will not be
increased over the past^year and
the government will not export
goods and commodities in short
supply to hurt the economy of
this country.
Greatest drain, it was pointed
out, may be on farm machinery
needed here and in Europe badly.
But export of farm machinery is
expected to get food production
going in Europe so that export of
food can gradually be reduced.
So farmers are expected to be
short of farm machinery in this
country for several years. Other
important exports ? under the
plan will be seeds, fertilizer . . .
mostly from army plants,' to
bacco ... to prevent an over
supply here, cotton, steel and
mining machinery.
Set-up of the plan likely will
include a director and an over
all board of directors with the
state department supreme in mat
? ters of foreign policy. A commit
tee from each major industry
probably will be set up. The tax
cost to the American people like
ly will be about 10 cent out of
each dollar spent for taxes over
the next five years. If half of the
loans are repaid then the net
cost would be about S cents of
every tax dollar.
The Marshall plan is largely
the product of the state depart
ment and is the economic phase
of the so-called Truman doctrine.
Motives of this government are
humanitarian, to restore Europe
as our best customer and to keep
Russia contained, away from
western 'Europe. Debate brought
out, in answer to queries why
the plan could not be adminis
tered through the United Na
tions (1) United Nations has no
money; (2) United Nations has
no goods; (3) only this country
has the money and goods; <4)
with Russia holding a veto we do
not trust United Nations to ad
minister such a complex plan on
such a scale with our money and
our goods as the substance.
Even Senator Vandenburg ad
mits the plan is a gamble, but if
the Marshall plan is not enacted
all are agreed that Western Eur
ope will be invaded by Russia
with war as a probability. If war
comes our allies would be
stronger because of the Marshall
plan and if no plan is enacted
then our military would need
many more billions than is con
sidered by the Marshall plan.
But it was pointed out our nation
is gambling with billions in the!
hope of peace instead of war. I
