Senate Report Cited as Scoring
Aid to British Plane Industry

has used United States aid to
foster a competitive civil jet
transport program to the detri-
ment of the United States in
dustry.
Zone Of the most startling
statements is that, III appropria-
tions for fiscal 1855 are voted in
accordance with requests, the
total amount Of United States
public funds contributed to the
Royal Air Force and to building
up the base and the strengthen
ing Of the British aircraft indus
try between 1850 and 1855 will
be In excess Of 50 billion. half of
this direct appropriation and
half in counterpart funds
The publication added that
$126 million in United States
machine tools were s'hurriedly
given to the British industry
without screening and without
control over their use,n accord
ing to the report.
The publication said other
findings of the report included !:
Three British fighters, termed
obsolescent. are being financed
with United States grant aid as
part Of the RAE modernization
program. They are still in
the experimental stage and are
not yet in full production.
Foreign aid is being used to
build up the production facilities
Of other countries to the detri-
ment of strategic United States
industries.
If the United States desires
to maintain close relations of
mutual esteem and respect with
valued allies, 1--WE should recog-
nize the imperative need for
frank. realistic and hard trading
in the extension of our foreign
aid. ANY concept that the
United States can only exercise
world leadership and hold allies
by providing money on terms
laid down by the recipient nation
is unSound and contrary to the
best interests of the United
States"

pared by a Senate committee

The Office of Chairman Bridges
Of the Senate Appropriations
Committee admitted that a con-
f1dential staff report had been
prepared on the American Brit
ish aircraft program. but the
Senator said he has no inten-
ton of releasing it until it is
studied by his fellow committee
members.

mary of the report: I'm essence.
it says the United States tax
payer has been substituting the
British aircraft industry which
