Foreign-War Bill Proposed

WASHINGTON--Six Senate non-interventionists today jointly sponsored a proposal to require a national referendum before Congress could authorize or appropriate money for use of the armed forces outside the Western Hemisphere.

The referendum plan would require only a majority vote of both House and Senate. It would not call for any action by the President. It would direct Congress to call a "national advisory election" when and if it was faced with the question of sending land, naval or airforces outside this hemisphere.
