Washington, July 11.
Economic Co-oporation administration officials said today that the third quarter allocations for China are likely to amount to US$60,000,- 000 or US$70,000,000, nearly double the first quarter. They said that if this occurs it would make the months of July, August and September the biggest ones for China procurement, since the ECA would by then have allotted more than one half of the total funds available for first year Chinese aid.
