Charge Marshall Plan Aluminum lie-sold To The ILS.

WASHINGTON, Dec 16 - (AP) - A disclosure that Marshall- Plen aluminum bought in Canada and sent. to Europe has been re- sold to American buyers, brought a government threat today to cur- tail aid deliveries to Britain, Belgium and Holland.

The Economic Co~Operatlon Ad- ministration said it has asked the three countries to halt the sales e- at what was reported as "high prices“ — to scrap buyers tn the United States.

Because of the diversion ol metals purchased with E.C.A. dollars, the agency reported‘ metal and ore re- quests from those governments al- ready have been trimmed.

No violation of law is involved. an E.C.A. spokesman said. But the volume of such traffic — more than 20 per cent oi the nearly 100.000 metric tons of the metals purchased foi- delivery to Europe - lndlcatw dealings on a scale contrary to E.C.A, policy, he stated. He said it demonstrates ihal- aid dollars were being used for metal not needed overseas.

A British Embassy spokesman ‘told a reporter: “We've got a clear conscience on this.“ He said the amount of aluminum involved in British resales is closer to 1-000 tons than to the 12,812 tons re- ported by E.C.A.

"In the second place." he said. "we think it is premature for E.C.A. to announce this while thc whole matter is tinder consider- aliOn and the figures are being investigated.“

iln Ottawa. government- sources said they have no knowledge oi the E.C.A. report (An official said: porters sell their scrap so in good faith“) Senator Tom Connolly iDcm. Tex.) disclosed fIlEﬂllWlllle that the aluminum resales were looked into by the Senate-House of Reil- resentatives E.C.A. watchdﬂi; "m" mittee at a meeting Der. 2. Statistics released by E. C.

To Saveltlrient, From llominunists Large Ilrder

(Editors note: This column is presented as an indication of Am- erican opinion on mailer ivurld events.)

By RELMAN MORIN Associated Prue News Analyst (for JM. Roberts, Jr.)

Suppose tha President suddenly called you over to the White House and said, "We‘ve got to stop the Communists in the For Bast. and I want you to drew‘ Up a plan. Give me your recommendations as soon as possible."

What would you do?

Quite probably your thoughts would turn ftrst in the direction of a Marshall Plan for the Or- ient. It. seems to have been suc- cessful in Europe. Why not in the Orient? You might start explor- ing lhg possibilities.

Immediately, some spectacular differences would become appar- out.

You would discover United States has "marginal aid" to the European countries. That. is. America has used dollars to prime the pump of their own industrial machinery. But no Oriental country - except Japan — has any industrial ma- chine of importance. so ‘marginal aid" wnuldnt he enough.

Secondly. you would he con- fronted wiih a trecniendous differ- once in political education. The people of Europe have been self- goveniing for many years.

Hence, they have something Io

that the supplied only

fight for, They are prepared to tight for that political‘ freedom. and to fight against Soviet dom- iiaiion - even though disguised

l-y their own Communists.

But no such sittiation prevails in the Orient. For some 300 years, most Orientals have been goveru~ ed either by foreigners nr by ab- sollitlsts. Chitin had a royal hQu5¢~_ until only a half~century ago. and llS presciit regime was not elected, put in power hy a majority 0f the Cliiucsg- people.

Therefore, the Orientals. when confronted hy Soviet domination through their own Communists. are hardly disposed to fight :i;:ainst it.

Oriental Communists. taking ad- vantage of the simple and polit- llflll_\' unsophisticated people, tell them; "Communism moans more

land and no taxes. so comic along ‘Nllll us.“ A Etiropcan farmer vrould know better. The man in the rice paddy. who probably ls totally Il- liicratc. does not.

And finally. you u-ould be con- fronted with the question of mon- ey. You would’ discover that the United Slaves. desmiic its wor- minus uvcalth and rcsoui-ce. is near the point ovhere it can accept no further romi-iiiimcnts, Atlas is get- illli! ltllllllly tired.

So you might. start thinking in terms of more limited objectives. Can a strategic line be drawn. in icirns of geography. that the Un- iird States might. hold? Can you 2W9 sci-ions consideration to the proposal - and it is often heard in Washington —- that 10.000 Am- (‘H0811 officers. technicians and advisors he sent to China to direct thn war against the Chinese Communists.

It would he hard to~iormulate any slfﬂlegiﬁ line because of the present. political struggle Iver/wen the rulers and the ruled In the Orient. For example. the people in Tonkin mlizhl tell you. "We prefer to he ruled by lndo-Ohin- Pse Ccmmtinlsts than by the French. Remove French control first. and then we'll talk busin, Gss." You might hear tho same illiiliz Tron the maples in Indon- osia and Malaya.

As tri having American officers handling the Chinese Nationalist xirmios ~_

The late "Vinegar Joe" Stllwel] lint‘! the same idea. The. general is gone now. hut one of his lieuten. ants. Gen. Frank Merrill. is avail- ahlo for testimony on the Vallie 0f that. plan. itnd there are thous~ ands of former Amierican soldiers nho fought with "Merrlllﬂs Mar- wuders" or irorked on the Leda Road. or drove trucks over the Burma Road who could give yOti information,

People say. "We oiiizht to lump in and save the Orient from the Communists."

But until you can show more
