This bill increases the amount of obligations, under the Second Liberty Bond Act, which may be outstanding at any one time. In effect, it raises the national debt limit to $295 billion until June 30, 1960. On that date, unless there is further action,The debt limit will fall back to $285 billion, $2 billion above the present limit. The bill was passed by a vote of 255 to 117. Indiana’s delegation was well-split, five voting with the majority, and six with the minority. Os the five voting for the bill from Indiana, four were Democrats; The lone Republican exception was Charles A. Halleck, Republican whip, and second-in-command, who had to vote for the Eisenhower-proposed measure, regardless of his personal feelings. The remaining four Democrats* John Brademas, Winfield Denton, Ray Madden, and Fred Wampler, voted for the measure because they sincerely believe it to be the best thing for the United Stats. If Congress votes to spend,, then it must extend the debt limit to meet those expenditures. Voting against the measure were the remaining two ancklour Democrats. E. Ross Adair, conservative Republican from the fourth district which includes Adams county, voted against the measure. This was expected, because he also voted against mostfof the appropriations which seem to make the debt limit increase necessary. William G. Bray, of Martinsville, prominently mentioned as a Republican possibility for governor in 1960, also voted against the measure. He too, like the four Democrats, Barr, of Indianapolis, Harmon of Muncie, Hogan of the ninth district, and Roush of Huntington, are conservatives. L ■ Actually, there is little hope of paying off the national debt. If we were to begin in the next fiscal year, 1960, to repay $1 billion each year, and assume no further deficits, we would not pay off the debt until the year 2245 A.D., and in that time we will pay $1.5 trillion in interest-—if the interest rates are not raised.

Pay Record Price For Huge Painting LONDON (UPI) —A London art; dealer acting for a secret client today paid a staggering world record auction price of $770,000 for Peter Paul Rubens' huge canvas “Adoration of the Magi.” The dealer, Leonard Koetser, averted a possible governmental hassle when he announced that the canvas would remain in England. Other single paintings have sold for more than $770,000 but in all such cases, the deals were private. Today's record price was the highest ever paid at public auction. The Rubens was one ? of 88 paintings sold at auction to pay off the massive inheritance taxes on the estate of the late Duke of Westminster. - „ Today’s auction of paintings fell just short of establishing a world record for a single day’s sale. Art lovers and dealers from many nations plunked down $2,072,000 for items in the duke's Collection. At that time Cezanne’s “Boy in a Red Waistcoat” sold for a record $616,000 but the price fell short of the $770,000 record set today for the Rubens. Koetser, who has a gallery on fashionable Duke Street, did not immediately disclose for whom he had acted in buying the 11x8 foot canvas. The “Magi,” the only Rubens alterprice still in private hande, had been highly coveted by American art galleries. The sale produced something of a crisis in thej British art world. The government! has * hinted it will not allow the painting 0 be experted if the buyer proves to be a foreigner.

Asks Long-Term Basis For U.S. Military Aid I WASHINGTON (UPD — President Eisenhower asked Congress today to place U.S. foreign military aid on a long-term basis and shift its control to the Defense Department to end “contentious” bickering. These were two of 12 recommendations for a sweeping reorganization of the aid program made in a,36-page report by EisenhowmfW'special committee on militai(|Kssistance. The President endorsed the proposals in letters to Speaker Sam-Rayburn and Vice President RiqhanJ M. Nixon. The chief ekffotttive said he probably-would put into effect by executive action all the recommendations which did not require legislation. These include the planning of military aid to Allied nations on a three-year and eventually a five-year basis. Eisenhower asked Congress to amend the mutual security law so he could carry out these other key proposals: —"There should be a continuing authorization for. the military assistance . appropriation in order to provide a sound legislative framework for multi-year planning and programming.” - —“The military assistance appropriation should be placed in the Department of Defense budget in order to center responsibility for administering the program more positively in the Defense Department.” In plugging for long-range aid planning, William H. Draper Jr., head of the committee, told newsi men, "We can’t fight a lOQryears , war, which I suppose this is. by I a year-to-year approach.” Even if planning and authorization of the aid program were placed on a long-run basis. Congress would have to provide funds each year. Under the present system, mili- ! tary aid money is appropriated to the President who, in turn, allocates it. The State and Defense departments share responsibility for formulating military aid policies. >
