At Cape Cod Home
HYANNIS PORT, Mass., Aug.
24 (AP).—President Kennedy
takes it easy today with his
convalescing wife and his two
children.
Mr. Kennedy's mood changed
with the miles last night as
he flew from steamy Wash
ington to Cape Cod for his
eighth straight week end at his
Hyannis Port summer home.
The President was stern and ,
unsmiling as he took the
House to task yesterday for
slashing $585 million from his i
foreign aid bill. '
A scant 15 minutes later the 1
President was smiling and I
shaking hands with a team
of baseball Little Leaguers at i
Andrews Air Force Base. He i
emerged from a helicopter to ]
just off Hyannis Port. ]

PRESIDENT'S STATEMENT
Aid Cut Unwise, Partisan
The text of a statement by
President Kennedy yesterday
on the House cut in foreign
aid funds:
The action of the House to
day in drastically cutting the
mutual security authorization
bill is unprecedented, unwar
ranted, and unwise.
This cut will critically affect
our strength at a time when
the forces of freedom are mov
ing around the world.
The most disturbing aspect
of today’s House action is that
for the first time since the end
of World War 11, this program
experienced a shocking and
thoughtless partisan attack by
the Republican leadership on a
program which both parties
have consistently supported as
being vital to our national se
curity.
I recall during eight years
in the Senate from 1953 to 1960
consistently supporting the re
quests which Oen. Eisenhower
made as President of the
United States.
This program has been op
posed by some members of both
parties in the past, but today
was the first time that the
leadership of one party led the
attack on it.
This year's authorization bill

freedom are moving around
the world.”
Mr. Kennedy recalled that
Democrats strongly supported
foreign aid under President
Eisenhower. He charged that
for the first time the House
Republican leadership led a
massive attack on the program
at a time when cold war dan
gers are even greater than in
some past years.
The President said only 9
per cent of the House Republi
cans voted against the cuts.
But he made no specific ref
erence to the Democrats who
supported the successful move
to trim $l6O million from the
Development Loan Program,
$l5O million from the Alliance
jfor Progress, $225 million from
I military assistance and SSO
million from the contingency
fund.
Rusk Sees Danger
Secretary of State Rusk said
in a statement that the House
action "slices into the very
muscle of our foreign policy,”
adding:
"The cut would impair our
national security, weaken the
Alliance for Progress, and re
strict our ability to respond to
new demands in crises in the
world struggle for freedom.
"When events are working in
favor of our world of freedom,
the Americans should not re
treat. We must not quit.”

was carefully trimmed before
it went to The Hill and was
examined by Gen. Clay and
others. It was one of the low
est ever presented to the Con
gress. Despite all of this, the
House of Representatives has
made the sharpest cut it has
ever made in a foreign authori
zation bill.
This action cannot be ex
plained by any change in the
world situation or by the re
quirements of our national se
curity or as an economy
measure. It is simply a short
sighted, irresponsible and
dangerously partisan action. If
today’s vote stands, no develop
ment loans could be made in
Iran, Greece, Thailand, or oth
er countries on the rim of the
Communist empire except to
fulfill existing commitments.
Under the terms of this bill,
hopeful social and economic
progress in Latin America will
be stalled and our shield
against Communist aggression
in this hemisphere will be
weakened. It will mean that the
Soviet Union will be giving al
most as much assistance to
the small island of Cuba as the
United States is to the whole
of Latin America. This is no
way to defeat communism in
this hemisphere.
A $225 million cut in mili-
On the Republican move for
the cuts, 66 Democrats joined
156 Republicans for reductions.
Only 16 Republicans went with
172 Democrats against them.
On the final roll call, 52 Re
publicans and 172 Democrats
voted for the bill while 120
Republicans and 66 Democrats
opposed passage.
Most of the 66 Democrats
were from the South, but they
included several prominent
Democrats who ordinarily vote
with the administration.
Among them were Ways and
Means Committee Chairman
Mills of Arkansas, Appropria
tions Committee Chairman
Cannon of Missouri and Rep
resentative Jennings of Vir
ginia, a Ways and Means Com
mittee member.
Representative M a t h ia s of
Maryland was one of the 16
Republicans voting against the
cuts. Most of the 15 others
were G. O. P. members of the
Foreign Affairs Committee.
Closer Than ’62 Vote
As evidence that the House
vote reflected growing national
criticism of the trend of fore
ign aid, the 38-vote margin of
passage of the bill was much
closer than the 250-164 House
vote which passed the foreign
aid authorization bill last year.
The principal confusion in
yesterday’s proceedings came

tary aid will jeopardize the ef
fectiveness of allied forces on
the border of the Sino-Soviet
bloc which now receives over
70 per cent of our military as
sistance. Obviously, the foreign
aid authorization voted by the
House today is unsatisfactory.
It represents not only a parti
san attack on the foreign pol
icy of this Government but a
repudiation of the foreign pol
icy which this country has pur
sued since the end of the Sec
ond World War.
In the key vote on foreign
assistance today, only 9 per
cent of the Repulbican mem
bers of the House supported
this program which has hith
erto commanded bipartisan
support, and I reiterate time
and again this program had
bipartisan support in the years
of the 50s. The danger is just
as great today. I see no reason
why the program and its bi
partisan support should be de
stroyed.
I urge, therefore, that mem
bers of both parties in the
Senate restore the full amount
of this request and that the
conference will give the House
of Representatives an oppor
tunity to reconsider its ill-ad
vised actions of today.
last-ditch motion to cut the
money authorizations in four
programs.
The House received no de
tailed explanation of the pro
posed reductions.
The text of the motion stated
that S9OO million was to be
substituted for $1.5 billion for
development loans in the pres
ent fiscal year. This indicated
a S6OO million cut which added
to the other cuts, would have
made a total reduction of more
than $1 billion.
Explaftis Total Cut
Mr. Adair explained later,
however, that this was "mis
leading.” He noted that the
House committee previously
proposed an authorization of
about $1 billion instead of $1.5
billion for the development
loan fund. He said the cut in
this item actually would amount
to only $l6O million and thus
make the overall total reduc
tion about $585 million.
In any event, some House
Republicans as well as Demo
crats regarded the money au
thorization total as being
somewhat academic in this
bill. They said it was merely a
ceiling and they predicted that
the actual appropriation by
Congress later this year would
be quite different and probably
downward.

leader who attends the archi
tecture school, said a commit
tee has been formed to spear
head the student protest move
ment.
He said appeals for aid were
being dispatched to foreign
capitals.
Mr. Dong talked to a news
man in the university com

government security men kept
watchful note.
"We are not afraid of those
men,” Mr. Dong said. “If any
thing happens to us there are
thousands of others who will
take our place.”
The official news agency said
troops and police enforcing
martial law in Binh Thuan
province arrested 43 persons at
the Binh Quang pagoda and
the Buddhist pagoda in Phan
Thiet city Wednesday night.
Mr. Diem's government an

martial law remains in effect,
all ministries will take orders
from the military and officers
of the armed forces appear to
be taking control under Mr.
Diem’s over-all leadership.
Lodge Already Active

Washington said Mr. Mau's
resignation as foreign minister
was one factor delaying Henry
Cabot Lodge, the new United
States ambassador, In present
ing his credentials to Mr. Diem.
There had been no American
contact with Mr. Diem since
martial law was declared
through Saturday morning al
though United Statzs authori
ties had talked with other Sai

Diem's brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu,
who is head of the secret po
lice.

A LITTLE CORNY
Three days of carrying the mail in a Dallas
suburb were enough to blister Mrs. Trudy
Nickels, 33, right onto the sidelines. She says
she loves her work, and will be back Septem

she’s soaking her feet and getting the feel of

New Graham Crusade
Has Different Facade
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 24
(AP).—Fourteen years ago, a
virtually unknown Baptist
preacher in a flashy suit opened
a one-week revival in a tent
near downtown Los Angeles.
It stretched to eight weeks,
attracted 350,000 persons, and
launched evangelist Billy
Graham on a world-wide cru
sade for Christ.
Dr. Graham, 44, and more
conservatively dressed, is back
in Los Angeles on a month
long crusade which his aides
say may break his attendance
records.
The first seven services were
attended by 258,186 persons and
there still are 14 more meet
ings in the crusade. If attend
ance continues at the present
rate, it could exceed the 700,-
000 record set at a three-week
crusade in Chicago last year.
The meetings are being con
ducted in the 110,000-seat Los
Angeles coliseum and have av
eraged about 35,000 persons
nightly. On opening night. Au

*A great many things are dif
ferent,’ says Dr. Graham. "But
I’m more convinced than ever
that Christ is the answer.
‘There may be more logic
and reason in my sermons now,
but I still preach the same gos
pel. That doesn’t change.’
Os the more than 30 million
persons to whom Dr. Graham
has preached around the world,
more than 900,000 have, as Dr.

In the last week in Los An

12,000 have made the same de
