West Germans Refuse New Pay for Western Troops
West Germany will stop cash payments for Western troop support after the current arrangement ends May 5, a finance ministry spokesman said. The Western allies requested negotiations on future costs, but Bonn will not agree to further payments. The Paris treaties require Bonn to cover certain costs while the Western troops remain in Germany, though allied non cash services continue. If no agreement is reached, Western allies face hundreds of millions in additional expenses, with Britain and the U.S. each facing large yearly costs. France and Britain do not make cash contributions for NATO troop upkeep.

Republicans and Democrats clash over a veto threatened farm bill with a billion-dollar soil bank. Senator Aiken says Eisenhower likely would not back the veto while Ellender defends the bill’s parity and farm aid aims. The Senate committee favors 96 percent parity for major crops and supports the soil bank to curb surpluses with four year planting reductions. A final committee action looms after late week farm readers review the omnibus measure.
