The Eisenhower administration plans a four billion dollar foreign aid program for the fiscal year starting July 1, with about half for military aid and the rest for economic loans and grants. The request totals roughly 4.1 billion, surpassing last year’s approved 3.9 billion and with military aid at about 2.0 billion.

The Commerce Department reported the prior year’s foreign aid at 4.571 billion, including 2.162 billion in military aid.
