Foreign Aid Slash Urged By Multi-Agency Review Group
A presidential survey team led by Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer urged an orderly end to U S economic aid to Europe and a personnel slash in foreign aid agencies. The report cited overstaffing in Paris and other capitals, called for returning control to the State Department, and opposed a single department for all economic aid. It emphasized Western Europe's own will and production growth, with U S help via tariff reductions and simpler customs.
