Deal to Foreign Business
WASHINGTON, UP) — Sen. Er

hower Administration this week
of “squelching” small business at

foreign aid spending to help little
concerns abroad.
Gruening spoke in the Senate
in support of an appropriations
bill amendment by Sen. John
Sarkman to provide $2,080,000 for
'Small business research in the
United States.
He said the University of Alas
ka needs funds for a study of the
tourist industry in Alaska, which
would be available under the
amendment.

table which he said shows that
the International Cooperation Ad

wan<t to do now is forget it —
forget what I saw.”

the boys.
Young Campiglia was described
by friends as a quiet individual
who had no enemies and never
