Bid For Closer
Set For'55

WASHINGTON @-Two Demo
cratic senator's said today Con-
gress will be asked early next year
to consider formal bid for closer
ties between North Atlantic ma
tiOnS.
Sen. Kefauver (D.Tenn), author
of a 1949 resolution looking toward
a convention Of delegates from
seven North Atlantic nations, said
the international climate" is
more favorable today than it ever
has been" for closer union between
this nation and its Atlantic allies.
He said he is preparing a formal
resolution to be introduced in the
Senate early next year.
Sen. Sparkman DALAI, a men,
ber of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, said in a separate inter-
view he will support a resolution
next year suggesting" that dele.
gates from the seven nations
which sponsored the North At
lantic Treaty Organization "meet
to discuss the possibility" of some
form of union.
Sparkman said he too feels that
the time to ripe for such an ex-
ploratory meeting. He cautioned,
however, that the United States
should be careful mot to 90 out
too much in the lead"
The Communist world, he said,
would be quick to accuse this coun-
try of plotting imperialism if it
appeared to be applying pressure
for some form of Atlantic union.
The idea of an Atlantic union s
supported by various citizens
groups. The best known of which
is the Atlantic Union Committee
headed by former Supreme Court
Justice Owen J. Roberts.

By JOHN ScALi

WASHINGTON REThe Eisen-
hover administration was said to-
day to be nearly ready with a re-
quest to Congress for at least three
billion dollars to continue econom-
ic and military aid to friendly ma
tions abroad.
Such an amount would be slight
ly more than the $2,78O, 900, 900
Congress provided this year for
grants, loans and arms shipments
to more than 40 friendly govern
ments.
President Eisenhower probably
will unveil the new program in
his budget message Jan. II. In
formed officials reported govern
ment agencies have decided Con-
gress should be asked to appro-
pirate between 3 and 31a billion
dollars. The State, Treasury and
Defense departments and the For
eign Operations Administration are
expected to agree within the next
week On a firm figure and also
be allocated by regions.
Any request for three billion dol
lars or more would certainly face
critical scrutiny in Congress. For
eign aid programs have been
trimmed considerably in recent
years, and several key Congress
members have said they will op-
pose any new funds for strictly
economic aid.
Officials helping 10 draft the new
program said it would seek to
channel most of the us. dollars
to the Far East but that it does
not contemplate any massive assis-
tance similar to the postwar
Marshall Plan for Western Europe.
A modest increase in Asian
economic aid, however, will be
sought, officials said, on the theory
that it is urgent to improve living
standards if the peoples there are
to resist communism.

$3,OOO,OOO To Be Asked
For Further AidTo Allies

Some 81, 100000 worth of for.
eign aid was allocated to the Far
East and Pacific nations last year
but less than one third of this went
for economic and technical aid.
The rest was spent for military
assistance to Formosa, Indochina,
Korea and other nations.
Foreign aid to Western Europe,
which dropped to about Is per cent
of all funds in the last program
approved by Congress-, is expected
to remain at about the same level
under present planning. Authorities
said most of this money goes for
special programs in Spain. Turkey,
Greece and YugoSlavia. The rest
of Western Europe, while sched-
uled to get virtually none of the
new money to be sought, will con-
tinue to receive military shipments
and some economic help from
money previously appropriated by
Congress, officials said.
