Group Slashes Aid by Billion in Eisenhower Plan

Washington The House foreign affairs committee voted today to slash more than a billion dollars from President Eisenhower's foreign aid program. The panel, 18 to 11 in closed session, cut a billion from the proposed three billions for military assistance next year and reduced the 1.9 billion in economic aid by 109 million, shifting funds to bolster other countries against communism. Chairman Richards said carryover funds could allow continued military aid, while Secretary Dulles announced a renewed bid for the long range aid plan when the bill reaches the Senate committee. Dulles also said the U.S. now believes Russia will reduce military manpower, a conclusion Khrushchev reportedly did not spell out at recent London talks.
