Historian Henry Steele Commager testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee urging restraint in U S policy amid a push for moralistic imperialism. He warned America risks overextension and urged long view, tolerance, and sympathy for new nations while acknowledging strong power in the economy and military. He criticized isolationism and noted limited gains from current Southeast Asia actions, offering no concrete reversals or new foreign aid plans.

Patman questions CIA conduit use of Kaplan Fund
Rep. Wright Patman pressed IRS officials on August 31, 1964 about why the Kaplan Fund faced no action amid suspected CIA funds. IRS officials cited CIA involvement as delaying the file, with no knowledge of how much money flowed via the fund. Returns for 1961–63 lacked CIA money notes, and donor addresses were not on file.
