By contributions they obtained sufficient funds to employ a matron and launrcless to care for the children.

(UP) A three-day secret meeting by the military section of the Pacific Defense Alliance ended today and it was announced plans have been formulated for cooperative military support of the Mutual Defense Pact. Representatives of the United States.

Australia and New Zealand disclosed they had set up the machinery needed to keep the three ANOTS Council nations informed on "military problems" which would arise if the treaty's defense stipulations had to be exercised. Text of the communique issued at Admiral Arthur W. Radford's Pearl Harbor headquarters indicated the first military meeting established a liaison system under which the member nations would consult quickly among themselves the event of armed aggression in the Pacific. Almost no other details were released regarding subjects discussed at closed sessions in the naval headquarters building briefing room. A Washington military source said enrlier a seconndry defense line for Australia and New Zealand would be laid.

Meeting with Radford were Lt. Gen. Sidney F. Howcll of Australia and Maj. Gen.

William G. Gentry of New Zealand. Their brief communiciiie said the military advisers to the A.VZUS Council would meet in the future "as the occasion demands. Normally such meetings would be rotated between Pearl Harbor, Wellington anc Melbourne." Accuse Democratic Administration of Being Deceived By Communists RACINE, Wis. (UP) Sen.

Robert A. Taft shared the platform with Sen. Joseph McCarthy and blasted Democratic administration for "sympathy toward Communism" since the early days of the New Deal. "The people who went to Tehran, the people who went to Yalta accepted the theory that Communism was a peace-loving form of Democracy," he said. Taft made three speeches in support of Dwight D.

Eisenhower in Wisconsin yesterday. He goes next to Chicago where he was scheduled to make major address today. He criticized American foreign policy "brought about by wavering and uncertainty and unwillingness to take a firm stand" against Com- r.nmism. The Ohio'Republican blamed the State Department for the "wholly unnecessary war" in Korea, and said the department abandoned the Chinese Nationalists because "the department preferred the Chinese Communists they were a kind of Chinese New Deal." Taft called McCarthy "my good friend and a great senator" and urged McCarthy's re-election in Wisconsin as part of the battle against the "false liberalism and sympathy towards Communism" in the Democratic administration. Taft said Eisenhower, who defeated Tatt for the GOP presidential nomination, supported his theory that the "best insurance for peace would be a foreign policy that firmly stated American intentions." He said Eisenhower had made it clear to him that he was for cutting government spending and stopping the advance of federal i power, which he said yesterday had grown so big the "people are afraid" of it.

His recent conference with Eisenhower, he said, was "not because I had any doubts but because I thought I would have more influence with my friends if I could give them direct assurance of Eisenhower's belief, in Republican principles."
