Foreign Aid Vote Signals Senate Split Over Kennedy Plan
The Senate faced a tight 43-40 vote on President Kennedy's foreign aid program amid partisan tension. Ellender sought a larger cut, but Mansfield and Dirksen led a bipartisan compromise to reduce the authorization from 4.2 to 3.8 billion dollars, with several senators switching or withdrawing support. The chamber then approved a Morse amendment trimming 25 million from development loan funds and rescinding additional authority.
