UNITED NATIONS. N. Y.
Dec. IS GA United Nations
committee last night approved
. United States plan for
expanding U. N. technical
assistance.
To. lay the groundwork for
the economic growth Of under
developed nations. the General
Assembly's Economic Commit
tee voted. $50. with eight abb
stentions. for the 500 million
plan.
Earlier, the United States
had opposed a broader pro-
poSal to create q "SUNFED"
agency-the special U. N. Fund
for Economic Development.
Various groups in the United
States have assailed the
SUNFED proposal.
Poorer nations have long
urged creation of SUNFED TO
provide $3.50 million to $3.50
million a year for loans and
grants for such nonpaying
projects as roads and schools.
The United States considered
the idea unrealistic.
THE resources that coun-
tries are now prepared TO make
available would be totally In
adequate to establish q fund OF
sufficient size to do the job
intended for it," Representative
Judd. Republican Of Mime
sofa, q member of this years
United States delegation to the
Assembly. told the committee.
The United States proposed
instead that 500 million be
spent annually to finance in
dustrial and agricultural train
ing institutes. surveys of re-
sources and other special prof.
ects that would foster further
economic development of the
recipient countries.
Mr.. Judd promised to urge

the rest.

resolution saying 1t looks for
