Greeks Tell U. S.
To Virtually Run
Their Government
WASHIN GTON, (/P) — The
Greek government told the Uinted
States today that the American
mission administering the $300,
000,000 assistance program to
Greece should virtually run the
economic life of the country.
In a move made public at the
state department, the Greeks also
gave formal assurance that the
money put out by the United
States to boost recovery and block
Communism in Greece “will be
used in conformance with the
purposes for which it may be
made available.”
The extent to which the Ameri- |
can mission, headed by former:
governor Dwight Griswold of Ne- J
braska will actually run economic'
affairs in Greece was disclosed in!
a lengthy list of duties which the
Greeks themselves said the Amer- I
icans should take over.
. i
The note said the mission j
should “‘participate in the devel- j
opment of revenue and expendi
ture policies, approve government
expenditures for activities which
directly or indirectly involve the
use of American aid, take part in
the planning of the import pro
gram and approve the use of for
eign exchange.”
Chinese Deny
Russian Charges
NANKING, (/P)—A government
spokesman denied today as “abso
lutely false” charges in an Outer
Mongolia^ communique broadcast
by Moscow that Chinese raiders
started the recent Sinkiang bor
der dispute. •
Hollington Tomg, minister of
information, * said no Chinese
troops have entered Outer Mon
golia either before or after the
clash at Peitashan, Sinkiang, 50
miles inside Chinese territory. He
said a small police detachment has
been maintained there since 1945.
.The Mongolian republic, in de
i nying Chinese assertions that its
troops attacked Chinese forces on
June 5, declared the Mongolians
were “compelled to take measures
for driving out raiders from terji
| tory of their country.”
The combined Chiefs of Staff
are in effect the board of directors
of the joint American-British war
effort.

and wise”—of U. S. Secretary of
State Marshall, who has proposed

rehabilitation of Europe.

WASHINGTON, f/P) — D|m >
crats tossed out a set of figures to
day to back up their claim Vn 7'
the Republican economy dr *.* •
has “fizzled and hopelessly boj^d
down.”
'Republican leaders, meamvMl'
'reqewed their long dormant ef
forts to nail down a Senate-Hous'
agreement on just how much o
try to cut President Tinman'
$37,500,000,000 budget for the fis
cal year beginning July 1.
The House earlier this year far
mally promised to whack six bil
lions off that spending estimate,
but the Senate voted only a four
and a half billion saving pledge
Democrats in both chambers
contended at th$ time that each
figure was too high.
In the House minority party
members picked Rep. Gore (Tenn)
as their “bookkeeper” to keep
track of Republican cuts.
Today as the House resumed
dfecussion of the $8,167,869,027 in
dependent offices appropriations
bill, Gore claimed “bona fide” re
ductions to date total only $1,875,
716,750.
Republicans are claiming more
than twice that much.
Gore added in a lengthy state
ment accompanied by several sets
of figures that “purely phony bud
get cut claims” have reached a to
tal of $2,699,150,000.

Tax To Be Same
Washington T^e* %use
J5s**d unanimously triday a. bill
freezing the social security puy

yiftvs.
It passed by the Senate and ac
cepted by President Truman the
measure will block an ,automatic
$2 >01,000.000 annual increase in
levy on January 1.
The legislation provides, how
eve'-. for an increase in the tax in
1950 to form one per cent to 1.5
parcent each against employee’s
pay and employers’ payrolls. In
1957 the tax would jump to two
per cent against each.
Without the freeze, the levy
would have increased January 1
to 2.5 per cent against employer
and employee. The present one
per cent tax collects about $1,500.

his friend, national bank vice pres

A daschund named Slick was
led out in front of the bank—re
