Dulles Warns Congress on Aid Cut Threatening Security
Secretary of State Dulles warned the Senate Appropriations Committee that cutting aid for allied defense undermines security and risks grave outcomes. Mundt urged annual loan repayments, citing a two year development fund with 500 million planned for year one and 625 million for year two. Senate and House positions clashed over a 300 million first year allocation, with Knowland hoping for about 3 billion in total aid.
