Dulles Seeks New Senate Foreign Aid Push

Secretary of State Dulles announced a new bid for the long range foreign aid plan when the Senate Foreign Relations Committee considers the aid bill. He also said the United States has deduced Russia will cut military manpower, noting Khrushchev did not disclose this at recent London talks. Stassen had cited Khrushchev as the source, a claim Dulles disputed as a deduction rather than a disclosure. He warned this adds confusion to Stassen’s position on Soviet military and economic strategy. The secretary also expressed regret over Egypt recognizing Red China, though he doubted any significant impact on China’s behavior.
