Arms for Spain Next Move in Senate Debate
The House moves to approve a $100 million loan to Franco's Spain from the Export-Import Bank, backed by Marshall Plan funds. Senate conferees balked. The plan strengthens Spain within a Western arms program as military bases may be offered in exchange for rearmament. The president could allocate 10 percent of $12 billion in foreign arms aid, with potential shifts to aid for other regions. The issue echoes US support at the San Francisco UN charter conference and raises diplomatic sensitivities.
