$750 MILLION ECONOMIC AID SLASH URGED McCarran Asks Step Senate Takes Up Bill To Cut Red Supplies Washington, Aug. 27 (U.R) Pat McCarran Nev.) urged today halving the $1,522,750,000 provided for economic aid in the Senate's already-trimmed $7,535,750,000 Foreign Aid Bill. McCarran, chairman of a House-Senate "watchdog" committee on overseas spending, advocated the cut as the Senate postponed debate to take up a House-passed bill to cut off all aid to any country that ships war goods to Communist countries. The bill, sponsored by Representative Laurie C. Battle Ala.) would give the Administration greater flexibility in enforcement than the present Kem amendment, but would cover both arms and economic aid.

1 The Kem amendment, tacked onto recent appropriations bill by Senator James P. Kem, makes mandatory a cut-off of economic aid to any country that ships "strategic" goods to iron curtain nations. The Battle bill provides: 1. An immediate, automatic cut-off of all forms of aid to any country that ships "arms, ammunition, implements of war or atomic energy materials to any Communist country. 1 i.

That the President can permit aid to coun tries which ship less drastic war goods to the Soviet bloc "when unusual circumstances indicate that cessation of aid would clearly be detrimental to the security of the United Mates." Cart Before Horse' Kem demanded that the bill be pigeon-holed and accused the Democrats -of rushing the bill through without hearings and putting "the cart before the horse" by taking it up before completing action on the Foreign Aid Bill. "To dispose of this bill-ith out hearings," Kem said, "would be a breach of faith with the 80,000 Americans whose blood has been spilled in Korea." He demanded that Congress insist on "an iron-clad, escape- proof law.

"Wage Proposal Rejected The appeal to" the Prestdent followed the rejection by the Kennecott Copper Company of a Government proposal for settlement of the wage dispute. The Kennecott negotiations were to set the pattern for the entire Industry. The 300-word telegram to Mr.

Truman said in part: "Refusal by Kennecott and other producers to accept the proposal puts the responsibility for the shutdown on them and therefore we ask that you use your powers to have the Government take over the industry immediately." Unions Accept V. S. Plan The 12 unions involved in the dispute had accepted the proposal made by the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service during a bargaining- session at Washington which lasted 14 hours from 1 p.m. yesterday until 3:30 a.m. today.

The proposal rejected by Kennecott called for a 16-cent-an-hour wage Increase, plus a pension plan that Kennecott estimated would cost 4 cents an hour.

27 (UP) President Truman was expected to move swift ly today in an attempt to end a nation-wide strike by 8,000 copper workers that poses a serious threat to the defense program. The walkout idled 42,000 other workers. White House sources doubt ed if Mr. Truman would seize the industry as proposed by union officials but said he more likely would appeal to the (Strikers to return to work and refer the dispute to the Wage Stabilization Board. There also was, a possibility that he would invoke the Tan Hartley law and seek a court injunction to call off the strike for 80 days.

It was learned from White House sources that Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson is concerned over the loss of even one day's production of a strategic metal so vital to the re armament program. Copper is scarce and the nation stock pile is said to be, dangerously low. The walkout began at 7 a.m. following rejection by 4he Kennecott Copper Company of a Government proposal for set tling the dispute.

27 (U.R) India's complaints against the Japanese treaty will be seized by Russia Andrei A Gromyko to- attend the peace pact at the San Francisco con ference, American officials pre dicted today. New tension in American-ln dia relations was forecast free ly as the result of India's re jection of an American bid to the peace conference and the State Department's irritated re ply. The Indian-American ex change was made publie last night. U. S.

authorities were sure that the government headed by Prime Minister Nehru was not in collusion with the Soviet Union against the Japanese treaty. But they said the effect of India's arguments played in to Soviet hands and Gromyko would make-the most them at in peace conference: If Ind hadLrested its case against the Japanese treaty and merely informed this Govern meat, of its decision to boycott the conference, American offi cials indicated they would have been more pleased. But India added to its rejection extensive comments that are sure to add fuel to the forthcoming dispute at San Francisco with the Soviets. India argued anew against an American trusteeship over the Ryukyu and Bonin Islands and against stationing of U. S.

troops in Japan after the treaty comes into forcn. It revived sug gestions that the Kuriles and South Sakhalin be for.nally handed over to Russia and that Formosa go to Red China. For these reasons, India said it would sign a separate peace with Japan and establish full diplomatic relations with the former enemy country. The United States replied that India used inconsistent and "petty" reasoning against treaty wording that sought to meet ob jections of many countries. The over-riding desire of the government of the United States is peace in Asia," the American note said.
