Ike Aid Requests Defeated by House Committee
The House Foreign Affairs Committee rejected President Eisenhower's call for long term foreign aid authority and instead approved a statement of intent to fight communism.

The panel also merged this with 242 million dollars for development elsewhere, to be available only as loans or surplus commodities.
