Eisenhower urged to reject British nonaggression pact plan
A House Foreign Affairs Committee group urged President Eisenhower to reject Eden’s nonaggression proposal in Asia or force a full review of foreign aid. In a White House letter signed by 12 lawmakers, the panel warned the policy would undercut US aims to use aid to unite free nations against communism. The letter arrived as Churchill and Eden visited, while the committee released a report insisting US actions should not weaken anti-communist resistance and maintain the July 1 foreign aid package totaling 3.47 billion dollars. The House planned to consider the matter Monday with 14 members in Washington. one signer abstained and another disclosed a motorist sign story. A separate note flagged action on new speed measuring devices and police demonstrations in coming weeks. Two other items touched on Canadian hydroelectric potential and local law enforcement concerns.
