Far East Receives Largest Share of U S Non-Military Aid
President Eisenhower reported to Congress that nearly half of the $1 billion in non-military U S foreign aid for fiscal 1956 went to the Far East. Most non-military aid in the region funded defense support, primarily to South Korea, Nationalist China, and South Vietnam, with Europe receiving all non-military aid. The overall mutual security program leaned toward direct military aid and defense support, as military deliveries to the free world rose to about $2 billion in the first half of 1956.
