If the Aga Khan wished to do he could keep this money for himself. Having other means of his own, he will employ it to help members of the Ismaili sect of Mohammedism, of which he is the spiritual head. His other means, which are believed to be stupendous, come from the voluntary contribu- tions of millions of his followers. The Aga Khan is a prince above princes.

The amount it requested was only $4,150.326, compared with hundreds of millions spent for “intelligence” in wartime.

TWO GCGD CONGRESSMEN The Collier's awards for distin- guished service in Congress to GOP Senator Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan and Democratic Repre- sentative Mike Monroney of Okla- homa met with wide approval in the Capital.

Tne three Congressmen had call- ed White House Secretary Dave Niles a day earlicr to see if he had any suggestions 1o help in the fight to bring in a minimum wage bill withcut the crippling Pace rider. That night Outland was called at home and asked to be at the White Houseg next day along with Hook and Biemiller.
