Sfassen Under
Attack For
Hotdino Report
By UNITED PRESS
Mutual Security Director
Harold E. Stassen came un
der fire from his own party
today for allegedly supres
sing an “embarrassing” re
port calling for abolition of
his foreign aid agency.
The report was made by 55 bus
iness leaders who surveyed the for
eign aid program early this year
at the administration’s request. The
group reported back to President
Eisenhower March 24. but nothing
has been officially announced on
their findings.
Republican congressmen charged
that Stassen was “suppressing” the
report because it recommends
sharp cuts in foreign aid and the
transfer of all foreign aid functions
to the State Department—a move
opposed by both Stassen and Sec
retary of State John Foster Dulles
Stassen admitted to the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee that
some of the business leaders had
recommended . elimination of the
Mutual Security Agency but said
the administration’s $1,800,000,000
cut in foreign aid was in line with
their recommendations.
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
Other congressional news:
Asia: Aroused congressmen de
manded that the administration
take bold action to stop the Red
tide of aggression in Southeast Asia.
Chairman William F. Knowland of
itbe Senate Republican Policy Com
mittee suggested that American air
knd naval power be used “if it is
> determined that our national 'in
terests require such action to deter :
further aggression.’*.
Influence peddling: Sen. Joseph
R. McCarthy made public a volu
minous report on alleged influence
! Senate for failing to appear before
McCarthy’s Permanent Investlgat-
L Jng -subcommittee. The report ac
cuses Duke of directing tax delin
i quents to Edward P. Morgan, prom
inent Washington attorney, who
. once served as chief counsel of the
• Senate Foreign Relations subcom
i mittee which] labelled McCarthy's
campaign agffinst Communists in
