Senate rejects Greek-Turkish aid plan to committee

Senate refused today to approve the $100,000,000 Greek Turkish aid and sent the measure to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for study. In other dispatches from Jerusalem British authorities moved 50 suspected Jewish extremists to Kenya for safekeeping amid fears of a mass prison delivery. In Tokyo, occupation officials denied Moscow radio reports that former Japanese airmen were being trained abroad and said there was no basis for such claims. A senior Allied source said war damage and loss claims against Japan may be settled for pennies on the dollar with Japan’s assets not likely to cover the vast claims, and that only a portion of seized property and industry would be recovered.
