Marshall Seeks Unified EU Aid Plan With Single Administrator
Secretary of State Marshall urged Congress for an adequate, prompt Europe aid program and rejected a GOP plan for a new agency. He called for a single administrator to work with the secretary on foreign policy, warning that two secretaries of state cannot serve. He argued for a four year multi billion dollar program to revive Europe, saying dollars alone cannot save the world and stressing timely start as April first. He estimated needs between 15 and 18.6 billion but noted exact costs depend on conditions and emphasized accountability and no strings attached to aid beyond genuine recovery.
