McCarran Plan Seeks Targeted European Aid Programs
The plan would replace general ECA funding with specific congressional appropriations for five programs. Proposals include a European clearing house, US surplus farm product purchases for Europe, creation of an International Reconstruction Finance Corporation, and guarantees for American investors, with total estimates between 2.3 and 2.8 billion dollars. Supporters argue it narrows the Marshall Plan basis while existing ECA operation would shrink to about 10 to 600 million for other programs. The watchdog committee notes these are studied alternatives, not final sums.
