Senators Attack Eisenhower Mutual Aid Bill in Senate
Democratic critics assailed the $3.93 billion mutual security measure as endless foreign aid. Senator Mansfield proposed five amendments to trim military aid and set a June 30, 1963 cutoff for most economic assistance except loans. One measure would lift secrecy on all aid details, while lawmakers argue taxpayers deserve full information. The House pared $266.8 million from the president's plan, and the Senate committee plans its own draft Wednesday.
