New Arms Aid
Bill Approved Tentatively
Washington, June 16.
Two Senate Com-
mittees today tentatively approved a bill authoris- ing US$1,222,500,000 in new foreign arms aid after sharply curtailing President Truman's request for power to help arm any nation.
The lion's share of the new programme US$1,000,000,000 - would go to the North Atlantic Pact powers.
The remainder would be divided among Greece, Turkey, Iran, the Philippines, Korea and the Far Eastern countries.
