U.S. URGES CUT IN UN'S AMBITIOUS PLAN TO AID UNDER-DEVELOPED AREAS
Geneva, July 21.
The United States, showing its hang on President Truman's "Fourth Point" plan to aid under-developed countries, today urged a big cut in the United Nations' ambitious $36,000,000 plan.
Mr. Willard Thorp, Assistant Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, declar- ed that his Government believed that no more than $25,000,000 could be spent effectively in the first year of the plan's operation, Calling for a careful beginning, Mr. Thorp told a packed session of the Econo- mic and Social Council here: "We have a job to do, and we must figure out how-to-get-it-moving-promptly and effectively.”
