For the Record

Senator Knowland has warned President Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles that any attempt by the Administration to send aid to Poland will arouse considerable Congressional opposition. “If we start giving to Poland,” says Knowland, “it will be difficult to discriminate against Rumania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and Hungary.” But Senator Jack Kennedy insists it would be “brutal” to withhold aid from Poland. Eric Johnston, head of the International Development Advisory Board (which recently came out in favor of continued foreign aid) , adds that U.S. aid to the Iron Curtain countries “is essential if we are to win the satellites over to the United States.”

Mr. J. Edgar Hoover has warned that the supposed break of the American Communist Party with Moscow is just window dressing, designed to thwart federal prosecution.
