Washington Briefs Extend German Purchases and Center Aid
West Germany agrees to buy about 1.3 billion dollars in U.S. equipment and services over two years, a Bonn-initiated deal extended through 1965 to balance U.S. overseas spending. Congress grants three more years to raise 30 million for the National Cultural Center, with trustees doubling from 15 to 30. Senator Ribicoff says Kennedy support extends to limited federal aid to church schools, opposing only broad aid.
