Vandenberg Foreign Policy Study Plan Wins Senate Support

Washington, Mar. 26-Senator Arthur Vandenberg's proposal for a non-partisan commission to study long-range American foreign policy today won enthusiastic support in the Senate.

Several members were particularly interested in the Michigan Re- publican's suggestion which proposed that the Commission consider the problem of dealing with Western European nations after the Marshall European recovery programme expires in 1952.
