The Civil Aeronautics Board announced today it will hold a

House Begins Military Aid Bill Debate

By Rex Chaney

United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17

(UP) The $1,450,000,000 mili

tary aid program came up in the House today with a potent bi

partisan group determined io

fu-t it by $580,000,000.

Administiation leaders are

confident, however, they have the votes to defeat all efforts to

'educe the amount requested by

President Truman and approved

by tne fore gn affaivi commi'.tee.

But the loaders of the biparti-

5an group - Keps. James f. mcn-

ards, D., S. D., an- John M.

Vorys, R., O., wie likewise confident they would have the votes to make the outcome close, even if they don't succeed in

obtaining a majority. i ,-

The House wont do any vot

ing today. This ;sesrion will be

levoted to general dbEite. The

amending stage will be 'reached

tomorrow.

The administration - sponsored

legislation carries .$1,160,990,000

in military assistance for the signatories of the North Atlantic

pact, $211,370,000 for Greece and

Turkey, and $27,640,000 for Ira'V Korea and the Philippines. Of the total earmarked for the

Atlantic , powers, $505,150,000 is

in contract authority.

The. Richards-Vorys group has

its eye mainly on $1,160,990,000 earmarked for the pact powers. It has proposed that this total be cut in half so that Congress can take another look at the arms aid plan next year without be

ing previously committed to cha

entire amount.

By Warren Duff ee United Press Staff Correspondent " WASHINGTON, Aug. ,17. (UP) Sen. Joseph R. Mo. Carthy, R., Wis., demanded today that John Maragon," key figure in the Senate's "five per center" investigation and friend of Maj. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, be indicted for perjury. McCarthy's demand came after Milton Polland, Milwaukee insurance man, admitted paying Maragon, White House hanger-on, for representing a New Jersey molasses firm whose molasses allocation had been suspended by the Agriculture Department. Polland testified before the Senate investigation committee after Maragon's sworn testimony at an earlier session' that he never received any money except from two other firms for doing business with the government was read into the record.

Six New Polio Cases Reported Total Is 461 INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 17 (U.R) Six new cases of polio were reported by the State Board of Health today to bring the total to 461 for this year. The death toll stood at 48 (Board of Health revision.) Two of the cases reported today were in Vanderburgh County, Which now has a total of 31 cases but no deaths. St. Joseph, Hamilton, Howard and Posey Counties each reported one case. Meanwhile, the state polio committee prepared to meet to "pool all knowledge" of the disease. (Dr. George M. Brother of the State Health Board emphasized the meeting of the Indiana State Polio Committee was ' not of an emergency nature. . "There is still no trend either way," he added. 61 Counties The disease had engulfed 61 Hoosier counties with the additional 15 cases reported late yesterday. Jay County remained the hardest hit with 64, but has not reported a new case in the last week. . The death of C. Lyle Mann-

weiler, age 37, South Bend, in Memorial Hospital there was not attributed officially to polio until late yesterday. A second death reported yesterday was that of Judy Sullivan, age 15, Kosciusko County, who died at Warsaw.

Today's meeting was the second since the state polio committee was formed early this summer. "We just wairt to pool all our polio knowledge," Dr. Brother said.
