Since even the Republican iso- lationists are dead opposed to a Soviet-dominated Greece bottling up of the eastern end of the Med- iterranean with its Arabian oil now used by the U. S. Navy, the third alternative probably can be ruled out. Chances are strong that we will do something to help Greece. The chances are also strong that we will follow the first alternative, and let a British-puppet govern- ment, or by a new coalition go ment continue to bungle. Political- ly, both for Congress and for Tru- | man, this is the easiest way out. Furthermore, it is virtually what we | have been doing already. Actually, it makes little ence whether U.

GLETON WASHINGTON, March 12—P- | President Truman asked Congress today to supply $400,000,000 and | American military advisers to Greece and Turkey—Mediterranean bulwarks against spreading Com- J munism, . In a momentous personal address to a joint Senate-House session, |Mr. Truman told the legislators that “the foreign policy and the national security of this country are involved.” He said the “gravity of the sit- uation” had brought him before the joint session Should Greece disappear as an | independent state, he went on, it {“would have a profound effect up- on those countries in Europe whose jmnplos are struggling against great difficulties to maintain their free- dom and independence while they repair the damages of war.” Turkey Important As for Turkey, he said its future “is clearly no less important to the freedom-loving peoples of the world than the future of Greece.” Maintenance of its national in- tegrity, Mr. Truman added, “is essential to the preservation of or- der in the middle east.” Mr. Truman did not say how he would divide the $480,000,000 be- 'tween Greece and Turkey. It has been reported, however, that $250,.- 000,000 would go to Greece and $150,000,000 to Turkey. The President addec: “In addition to funds, I ask the Congress to authorize the detail of American civillan and military personnel to Greece and Turkey, at the request of those countries, to assist in the tasks of reconstruc- tion, and for the purpose of super- vising the use of such financial and material assistance as may be fur- nished. I recommend that authority 1 also be provided for the instruction and training of selected Greek and Turkish personnel. “Finally, I ask that the Congress provide authority which will per- mit the speediest and most effec- tive use, in terms ol needed com- modities, supplies, and equipment, of such funds as may be author- ized.” Russians Recalled As Congress received Mr. Tru- man's message Russia recalled her Ambassadors to London and Wash- ington for “consultation.” | This sudden order last night for {return to Moscow of Nikolai V. Novikov, Soviet Ambassador in Washington, and Georgi Zarubin, diplomatic chief in London, re- ! mained officially unexplained. Lacking such an explanation the move could be explained by a pos- sible desire on'the part of Premier ! Stalin for a tirst hand report on the Anglo-American attitude in the light of Britain's decision to cast ,off some of her long-standing commitments in the Mediterranean area. Or it could have stemmed from need for Novikov'’s and Zarubin's advice at the cwrent Moscow ! meeting of the council of Foreign ! Ministers. . Mr. Truman at no time mention- ed Russia directly in his address.
