In diplomatic circles Henderson’s statement was seen as the most significant on Greece since the Truman Doctrine. It foreshadowed a proposed military aid package near 300 million dollars, double last year’s program, and hinted the U S might take drastic action beyond dollars and advice if needed. It contrasted with a year ago when the State Department believed only funds were needed and Dean Acheson said troops were not foreseen.
