AUTHORIZATION FOR LOAN OF
NAVAL, VESSELS TO FRIENDLY
FOREIGN COUNTRIES
The PRESIDING OFFICER laid before
the Senate a message from the House
of Representatives announcing Its dis-
agreement to the amendment of the Sen-
ate to the bill (H.R. 7812) to authorize
the loan of naval vessels to friendly for-
eign countries, and for other purposes,
and requesting a conference with the
Senate on the disagreeing votes of the
two Houses thereon.
Mr. STENNIS. I move that the Sen-
ate insist upon its amendments, agree to
the request of the House for a confer-
ence,and that the Chair appoint the
conferees on the part of the Senate.
The motion was agreed to; and the
Presiding Officer appointed Mr. RUSSELL
Of Georgia, Mr. BYRD of Virginia, Mr.
STENNIS, Mr. SYMINGTON, Mr. SALTON-
STALL, and Mrs. SMITH conferees on the
part of the Senate.

his faith in communism but not exactly the
Kremlin brand, was a model in this American
experiment. Whether the effort has paid off
to our benefit is a question that will be
argued on both sides.
Now President Johnson has set out to woo
two Soviet bloc states. This country's first
commercial trade mission left recently for
trade conferences with Communist leaders of
Poland and Rumania. These two satellite
nations have been demonstrating some inde-
pendence of Moscow in recent months.
The President is said to feel that trade
agreements will not only help American busi-
ness and industry but that they will improve
relations and develop a better Understanding
between the Communist countries and the
United States. On the economic side, such
agreements would mean American compe-
tltlon with the Western European nations
now selling their goods to Poland and Ru-
mania. Members of the mission when they
return will acquaint American business
Q-oups with the possibilities for East Euro-
pean trade, citing both the obstacles and ad-
vantages. All things considered, it would
appear that the United States has little to

The United States is working on de-
salting processes with many nations of
the world. The possibilities for coopera-
tion should be best, however, between two
close neighbors-Mexico and the United
States.
We were all heartened to hear that
Joint studies are being undertaken by
Mexico and the United States aimed at
eventual construction of a great nuclear
water desalting plant.
It will serve the and border regions of
Southwest: Sonora and Baha on the
Mexican side and Arizona and California
on the U.S. side.
A recent Philadelphia Inquirer edito-
rial said:
The admimetration should be congratu
lated for aiming itself with Mexico in a prod-
set with so much promise of mutual benefit
and betterment for all mankind.
Because the editorial will be of general
interest, I ask unanimous consent that
it be printed in the RECORD.
There being no objection, the editorial
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
[From the Philadelphia Inquirer, Oct. 5,
1065]
UNITED STATES-MEEIcaN NUCLEAR WATER
PLANT
Over the years the United States and
Mexico have devoted much energy and pos-
sibly millions of words to negotiations con-
cerning watersametimes with amicable re-
sults and often with neither party fully satis-
fied by the outcome. Now comes an agree-
ment between the two nations which both
sides ought to find completely acceptable.
We refer to the joint studies to be under-
taken by Mexico and the United States aimed
at eventual construction of a great nuclear
water desalting plant to serve the arid bor-
der regions of the Southwest: Sonora and
Saha on the Mexican ride; Arizona and Cal-
ifornia on the U.S. side.
News of the project-announced at the
opening of the out international symposium
on water desalinization in Washington,
D.C.--should impress delegates from many
countries and guarantee they will take home
