Bill to Expand
Iron Curtain Aid
Gains Heudwuy

The Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee yesterday ap-.
proved President Kennedy's re-
quest for a change in existing
law to give him more leeway in
extending economic aid to cap
tive peoples behind the Iron
Curtain.
The bill changes the Battle
Act of 1851, which was designed
to curb the shipment Of Stra-
tegic materials behind the Iron
Curtain.
Undersecretary of State
George w. Ball told the COM
mittee the principal change
proposed for this bill would be
to permit the President, when
he considers it important to
the security Of the United
States, to extend economic or
financial assistance to any ma
ton or area except Russia, Red
China, North Korea and North
Wet Nam.
Mr.. Ball said one possible
use Of the new authority would
be to let the United States use
Polish currency it has acquired
from the sale of surplus farm
crops on projects Of peace to
demonstrate American friend
ship for the people of Poland.
This is the third time the
Senate committee has approved
the bill, but it has never re-
ceived favorable action in the
House. Only one member of
the committee, Senator Will
lamS, Republican of Delaware,
asked to be recorded against
the bill.
