Kennedy Asks Nearly Five Billion for Foreign Aid
President Kennedy asked Congress for about 4.945 billion dollars in foreign aid for fiscal 1964, with 3.465 billion in economic assistance and 1.48 billion for military aid.

The plan emphasizes self-help and regional development, including 1 billion for the Alliance for Progress in Latin America. The message notes no country-specific breakdown.
