Funds From
United Nations Members
Washington, Jan. 2.
A report compiled by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee staff today declared that some of the United Nations voluntary aid programmes were in danger of collapsing through lack of funds.
It said that only 14 of the United Nations 60 member states had pledged contributions up to September 15, 1954, to each of the four voluntary programmes for the current year and described the response to the Korean Reconstruction Agency as "especially disappointing."
In a foreword to the report, Senator Alexander Wiley, the Committee
their Chairman, said that other nations had "lagged" in
contributions even though the United States had given as much as 70 por cent to the International Children's Fund, the Technical Assistance Programme, the Agency for Palestine Refugees and the Korean Agency.
