No U.S. Help For Dictatorships
(Rec. 1.0.) HAMBURG, Oct. 3. The chairman of the United States House of Representatives’ appropriations cohnmittee (Mr John Taber), who is a member of the Congress delegation touring Europe, told a Press conference that he noticed no visible signs of under-nourishment in Europe, but he thought that Europeans did not take things seriously enough. They did not work as energetically as they should. When it was suggested to him that European countries without American aid would be thrown into the arms of Communism, Mr Taber said: “Why should they become Communists?— That would only mean more hunger for them.”
Mr Taber said the countries in which the Government exercised dictatorship would not receive American help.
