Peace Corps seeks $108 million to double volunteers
Peace Corps director Sargent Shriver urged Congress to increase funding to 108 million dollars, enabling 13,000 volunteers overseas by late 1964. The plan calls for 3,000 more volunteers to Latin America and 1,000 to Africa, expanding existing programs rather than starting new ones.
