R. 11356 TO AMEND THE MUTUAL SECURITY ACT OF 1954, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES JUNE 5, 1956.-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union and ordered to be printed UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE WASHINGTON : 1956 Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 84TH CONGRESS HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES CREPT. 2213 td Session Part 2 JUNE 5, 1956.-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union and ordered to be printed Mr. SMITH of Wisconsin, from the Committee on Foreign Affairs, submitted the following MINORITY VIEWS In 3 previous years we have felt compelled to express our strong conviction that passage of a multibillion dollar mutual security bill of this nature was not and could not be the answer to our basic national need for peace and security. In our minority report on the Mutual Security Act of 1953, 3 years ago, we asked the following questions: What magic formula is there in this program that is going to transform millions of insecure people throughout the world into valiant, invigorated, and dependable allies? Is It United States money? No. We have tried that one many times-with no success. Is it United States armed might? No. Our forces have been bearing the brunt of the fight in Korea on behalf of the principles of sovereignty, inde- pendence, and freedom---and still the peoples of Asia waver. * * * It would therefore seem to us particularly essential that we evaluate the present program in the light of what similar programs in the past have failed to accomplish; and from the point of view of whether or not it offers fulfillment of pledges made to the American people. (H. Rept. 569, 83d Cong., 1st sess., pt. 2, p. 8.) In 1954, when the Mutual Security Act attempted to exchange the existing patchwork of foreign aid programs for a permanent form, we stated with equal emphasis: There exists in our minds a grave and fundamental ques- tion concerning the wisdom of enacting now what is con- Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 ~pproved Forj&atpctrlgf*op9f9qg224A000100370006-9 sidered permanent legislation. This is particularly so in 'view of the unsettled world conditions which become even :more unsettled with each passing day and the widespread uncertainties in high places as to our own foreign policy. The House Foreign Affairs Committee is a legislative com- mittee, a policy committee. The sole purpose of the coin- mittee in reviewing past programs and proposed programs is to determine policy. To carry out that responsibility has been the function of the committee in bringing out this bill. But how can we determine legislative policy as a directive and framework of action for the executive branch without being filly apprised of executive branch policy to give root ,and substance to what, after all, amount only to the cold 'words of a statute? (H. Rept. 1925, 83d Cong., 2d sess., pt. 3, p. 2.) In 1955 we felt again constrained to speak these words: In the past we have urged what to us has seemed natural ,and logical-a thorough study, a reappraisal, a redefining of foreign policies, techniques and statutes concerned with the :goal of international peace and security, which we all seek. The executive branch has not seen fit to do this before sub- mitting this bill to the Congress; nor has the Congress of the United States itself, which is directly responsible to the people who foot the bills, make the sacrifices, and fight the wars, undertaken such an analysis. (H. Rept. 91.2, 84th ("ong., 1st sess., pt. 2, p. 2.) And now in 1956, with still no reappraisal of the problems, of the policies, or of the programs, we are again asked to accept a multibillion dollar authorization based on a concept whose validity is outmoded, if, in fact-as we would deny-such validity ever existed. We could only wish that we had been wrong; that our fears of the inefficiency of the approach had been proven groundless. We would be the first to hope that this mutual security legislation might have proved to be the effective, weapon for American security and world peace that it was advertised to be. Events, statements by foreign officials and expressions by our own leaders in the executive branch and in the Congress confirm the fears which we expressed in our three previous minority reports. Nothing that has happened has changed our conviction that mutual security legislation of this nature is not and cannot be an adequate or right answer to our need for national security and world peace. The program continues to reveal an inherent failure in basic philosophic intent, a failure in direction and approach, and a failure to interpret the shifting nature of world events and to combat suc- cessfully relentless Soviet policy. It is increasingly apparent that the policy and the programs to be authorized by this legislation have proved to be not only wanting but actually self-defeating. It is not that we have failed to pour out money and pour it out generously. One glance at the following table, listing the money yet to be obligated and spent, indicates our unrestrained generosity and spending: Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 MUTUAL SECURITY ACT OF 1956 Estimated unobligated and unreserved balance June 30, 1956 Military----------------------------------------------------------------- Nonmilitary--------------------------- - ---- ---------------------- Total---------------------------- - ------------------------------ Estimate in March 1956 $297,000,000 106, 00, 00 Estimate in May 1956 $195, 500,000 1%,000,000 Estimated unexpended balance June 30, 1956 Estimate in March 1956 Military ---------------------------------------- ------------------------- Nonmilitary----------------------------------- ------------------------- Total-------------------------------------------------------------- 000 $1,678,2 0,00 Estimate in May 1056 $5,000,000,000 1, 80, 00, 00 Source: H. Rept. 2213, 84th Cong., 2d sess., p. 6. A complete and detailed breakdown of United States generosity will be found in the appendix to this report. This year, with mounting dissatisfaction and disillusionment with this policy among the people of the United States and their chosen Representatives in Congress, the program in this bill nevertheless plunges along, in its frustrated way, not knowing what its future course, size or policies will be. We feel that this bill is particularly, objectionable in that the only certainty contained in it is its duration-"permanent." Those who approve this legislation have inserted into the program the myste- rious, magical formula which they call "permanent legislation" as if "permanent" were synonymous with "sound." The philosophy contained in the Statement of Polic in section 7 of the bill is particu- larly objectionable in this regard. It puts the Congress of the United States on record and commits the United States to pursue programs of assistance as long as Communist danger to the peace of the world and the security of the United States persists. In other words, the United States is to take upon its shoulders, and the American people are to assume, the tax burden of supporting the free world indefinitely. No mention is made of what other nations are to do in order to keep the free world free. No clue is indicated as to our future course with respect to the nations who do not see fit to commit themselves with the free world. The time is long overdue when the American people---and particu- larly, the Congress, which carries a basic responsibility for the future of this country-must face hard facts with courage. Despite the out- pouring of billions of dollars, an honest appraisal of the world situation and of our relationship to it should give ample warning, even at this late date. To continue the philosophy and policies so far provided in mutual security legislation at a greater sum and for a longer period of time, can only mean an ultimately disastrous continuation of the all too apparent failures of the program. It is impossible to list in this brief report, either all inclusively or at sufficient length, the total reasons that call for serious questioning and opposition to H. R. 11356, the Mutual Security Act of 1956, cur- rently under consideration. Suffice it to say that even former strong Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 Approved For Release : CIA-RDP59-00224A000100370006-9 4 MUTUAL SECURITY ACT OF 1956 proponents of the program--a,id certainly the American people-are now demanding a reappraisal and rescrutiny of the purpose and policy, based on the following disturbing record: 1. It has failed in its futile attempt to make an appropriation of money a solution for a problem. 2. It has failed to expand the area of the world which may be called "free world." On the contrary, that area is being steadily constricted whiile the area of uncommitted or neutral nations is steadily expand- ing. "Neutralism" makes it easier for the Communists to increase their influence while the efforts of the free world are made more difficult. 3. Despite the mutual security program we have failed to convince peoples seeking their freedom and newly independent nations that we are sincere in opposing colonialism. 4. It has proved deficient in. wise programing, sound fiscal practices, satisfactory presentation to the Congress, adequate implementation of congressional intent, and understanding execution in the field. This is amply indicated by the testimony of the Honorable Joseph Campbell, Comptroller General of the United States, before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the mutual security program on May 21, 1956. Further, this bill reflects the increasing tendency to lump money, areas, and programs together, thus giving blank check authority to (he Executive. Because of the diffusion of delegated power which this bill makes possible, both the President and the Congress are steadily losing control of the spending and operations of the program- 5. It has failed to achieve for the free world the expected defense against Soviet military power. The North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- tion was organized as a defense against Soviet military power. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is losing power when it should be increasing it. The Secretary of State, in a news conference on April 24, 1956, stated "Broadly speaking, it is our view, and I think has been our view, that an organization of this kind [NATO] either grows or tends to_ dry up." With each Soviet smile, another crack. appears in the NATO armor. 6. It has failed to solve the problem of how to reach the peoples themselves in the underdeveloped nations. 7. It has :intermingled the valuable technical cooperation program, which is a sharing of knowledge, skills, and know-how with the peoples of the underdeveloped countries, with a huge military program that deals with arms and the implements of war. These are two totally different programs in magnitude, in philosophy, in intent, and in approach. Study should be made of how best to emphasize the importance and long range character of the technical cooperation program. Some thought should be given to separating this vital program from the other phases of the mutual security program. In fact, the advisa- bility might be considered of setting it up as an independent agency. 8. It has failed to consider sufficiently the present importance and the potentialities of our Latin American neighbors, The peace and security of the Western Hemisphere is vital to the preservation of the entire free world.

Finally, it has failed to convey to the world, and even to our friends, the real meaning of American traditions, principles, and ideals-those attributes which have made us a great Nation and a great people. In the face of this honest questioning even by former proponents of the program and by the public, and in the face, as well, of what seems to us also an undeniable failure in principle, policy, and performance, we cannot go along with the proposal to appropriate more billions for a longer time for more extensive programs of the same nature. What is needed is a stern, realistic reappraisal. In fact, returning from a recent study mission around the world, the Subcommittee on the Far East and the Pacific of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs stated with sober emphasis in its report : If it is to succeed, the United States must do more than reappraise its programs: it must subject to minute rescrutiny its policy and its determination (H. Rept. 2147, 84th Cong., 2d sess., p. 212). There has been introduced in the Congress a concurrent resolution calling for a congressional committee, 6 members from the Senate and 6 from the House, to study, reevaluate, and give relentless judgment on the policies and programs that have been carried on under this mutual security legislation; and to produce, following such study, sound suggestions for better implementing our national desire for peace and security. We urge the Congress to join with us in insisting upon a rescrutiny of our foreign policies and programs as the basic need of this hour. What is actually now at stake is not the mere continuation of programs or appropriations, but the very peace and safety of this country and the whole free world. LAWRENCE H. SMITH.

R. 11356 There follow tables on the extent of United States foreign aid dur- ing the period July 1, 1940, through December 31, 1955. This infor- mation was furnished by the Legislative Reference Service of the Library of Congress: As summarized in the first table United States foreign aid to all countries and international organizations for the period covering World War II and the postwar period, ending De- comber 31, 1955, amounted to $111,126,234,000. This total does not include United States capital investments in the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development ($635 million) and the International Monetary Fund ($2,750 million.) although these add to the foreign aid underwritten (reclaimable) by the United States Government. Lend-lease totals were divided into two sections, namely for the war emergency period and for the postwar period. During the postwar period additional funds were not author- ized; the totals extended for lend-lease were merely for the supplies in the so-called pipelines and final settlement of goods not yet delivered. Grants-in-aid are also divided into the war and postwar periods. In general no repayment was requested. The only condition stipulated in all grant agreements was that the United States could request a return of a percentage of Counterpart Funds in national currencies or in strategic raw materials from the recipients of aid. On the other hand, net authorized credits are loans or other agreements which gave rise to specific obligations for repay- ment. Utilized credits for the war period amounted to $1,096 million, but only the total for the overall period July 1940-December 31, 1955, is given by country as there was a continual readjustment in payments as well as previous grants being transferred to the loan account.
