M SENATOR
■SamJErvin
— The Senate for
‘igi* aid debate has hit hard
wasteful, and unrealis,
tJgßpractices which have been a
jSfwt of the AID program for
I years. Many of the current criti
cisms, some of which have been
winning as amendments to the
bill, have been voiced for a long
time. But this, time, there is a
realization that with a -serious
U. S. trade deficit running in
our balance-of-payments accounts
with other nations, with a tax
reduction bill before the Con
gress, and foreign competition
becoming more keen than ever,
it' is time to take another look
at foreign aid.
At stake is the necessity of
bringing order, intelligence, and
forthrightness into this instru
ment of foreign policy. At the
same time, Congress has no de
sire to legislate foreign policy
which is the undoubted preroga
tive of the President. It is
charged with the duty of over
seeing the expenditure of tax
"'dollars and it intends to dis
charge that function.
What started out as a 4-year
program, advocated as the Mar
shall Plan, has become an an
* nual burden on the taxpayer.
Just as Congress must question
the usefulness and the wisdom of
every appropriation for domestic
purposes, it has a duty to ques
tion foreign aid in the same
way. The fact that the program
has not received such a critical
review as this in recent years
has in no wise diminished the
need- for it. The Senate thinks
the time is ripe for a reapprais
al.
What the debate has produced
is a detailed record on the pro
gram. Foremost in this record
is that contrary to the annual
protestations of reform there is
still a lot of waste in the pro
gram. The foreign aid audits
of the . Comptroller General,
many of them classified informal
tion, have revealed a multitude
of costly mistakes. Military aid
to many small nations has be
\ come of such doubtful value that
it leaves room for .much saving.
The whole concept of what is a
loan needs reform. ■>
i Several days ago, I. .inserted
In the Congressional Record a
news article showing that the
Foreign Minister of Costa Rica
deemed what we called a “for
eign aid loan” to be a “gift”
that would not have to be repaid
by his country forty years from
now. The experience which our
nation has gained in a half cen
tury over nonpayment of so
called loans by other nations
should have taught us better.
It is a documented fact that
we have built through foreign
aid competitive industries over
seas to compete with our own
products. It is amazing that our
economic difficulties are not
greater than they are. Nonethe
less, they are serious enough to
require a hard-headed approach
to any future foreign aid pro
gram.
Congress has spent a great
deal of time on foreign aid sim
ply because the program as pre
sented by the Administration
was unrealistic in the light of
our other spending programs and
anticipated revenues. Moreover,
the Administration failed to
Jleed justifiable criticisms of the
program which have built up
over the years. As a result, Con
gress is saying that it, like the
people, wants something done
2bout a program that is out of
*fouch with the times.

Perquimans Indians
Region Champions
Defeat Stedman High
In Greenville Friday
Night 54 To 0
T
Perquimans Indians on Friday
night hung up their football togs
for the season, and with them
the AA regional championship.
The Indians ran roughshod over
Stedman High School, Pioneer
Conference Champions, by a
score of 54-0.
Stedman went into the game
with an unbeaten and untied
season’s record, but the boys
were no match for the high fly
ing Indians, who scored almost
at will.
The Indians were presented
the championship trophy by
Woodrow Taylor, superintendent
of Brunswick County Schools.
There are no more state cham
pionship games in the AA con
ference.

I No Comment j
. By JAMES W. DOUTHAT
Vitri riMidwt, OoTerameat
Belatloa* Divialoa of the National
Aaaoclatlon of Maaafacturen
NO Comment is a report oi
tocioents on the national scale,
and does not necessarily reflect
NAM policy or position.
Washington What logic may
dictate, politics may prevent.
This is the only explanation
for proposed across-the-board
pay increases for federal em
ployees.
Congress last year raised most
federal salaries under a bill with
the fancy title: “Federal Salary
Reform Act”.
At that time the Administra
tion, and probably most Con
gressmen, knew that the most
needed “reform” was to estab
lish a logical salary relation
ship between government and
private employment at the poli
cy-making level. To have
brought legislative salaries just a
bit more into line with what
the policy makers in industry are
paid would have cost .about $7,-
000,000. To have brought up
executive and judicial jobs into
line would have added some
thing like $25,000,000 more.
But did the bill do this? Cer
tainly not!
What it did do was raise sal
aries across the board except at
the important policy-making lev
els.
The basic policies of this
country are made by members
of Congress. Others in the gov
ernment either execute or en
force these policies. Kp there
has developed a pattern under
which very few federal govern
ment officials are paid more
than a Congressman, whether
they be in the executive agen
cies, independent agencies, or
the courts.
if a business were losing
money because costs were too
high, it might consider hiring
some new department heads to
cut costs—pay them well for do
ing it and thus balance the bud
get.
But not government.

ignored the policy makers, but
cost the taxpayers $670,000,000
in the fiscal year 1963 and the
cost will rise to over a billion
dollars in the current year.
| Since then a commission head
ed by Clarence B. Randall, for
mer Inland Steel President, has
recommended substantially high
er salaries for top congressional,
executive and judicial offices.
So now—on the basis of this
report—is Congress going to go
back and do, at a cost of per
haps $35,000,000, what it failed
to include in last year’s bill?
Os course not: instead, the
House Committee on Post Office
and Civil Service has reported a
bill again raising salaries across
the board. The bill as reported
will cost not $35,000,000 but
$600,000,000:
Under the bill as reported,
salaries of Senators and Repre
sentatives would be increased
from $22,500 annually to $32,500
and somewhat comparable in
creases would be given to cabi
net officers, judges and other
top-level officers.
Many in Washington feel that
such adjustments, by attracting
able men who cannot afford fed
eral service could mean reducing
federal costs through better man
agement.
But no matter how they feel,
in the end it is likely Congress
men will not dare “vote them
selves more pay” for fear of vot
er reaction.
