Aid for Self-HeIp

This declaration expresses the
conviction of the nations of
Latin America that these pro-
found economic, social, and cul-
tural changes can come about
only through the. self-help ef-
forts of each country. None
theless, in order to achieve the
goals which have been estab-
lished with the necessary speed,
it is indispensable that domes-
tic efforts be reinforced by
essential external assistance.
The United States, for it's
part, pledges its efforts to sup
ply financial and technical CO.
operation in order to achieve
the aims Of the Alliance for
Progress. To this end the United
States will provide a major
part of the minimum of $40
million principally in public
funds, which Latin America will
require over the next 10 years
from all external sources in
order to supplement its own
efforts.
The United States will pro-
vide from public funds more
than 81 billion during the IL
months which began on March
13. 1861, when the Alliance for
Progress was announced, as an
immediate contribution to the
economic and social progress of
Latin America.
The United States intends to
furnish development loans on
a long-term basis, where ap-
propriate, running up to SO
years and at very low or zero
rates of interest.
Reforms Promised
For their part, the countries
Of Latin America agree to de-
vote a rapidly increasing share
of their own resources to &C.
onomic and social development,
and to make the reforms nee
eSSary to assure that all share
fully in the fruits of the ALI
ance for Progress. .
The countries Of Latin
America will formulate COM
prehensive and well-conceived
national programs for the de-
Velopment of their own econo-
mics as the contribution of
each one of them to the Alli-
ance for Progress.
Independent and highly
qualified experts will be made
available to Latin America
countries in order to assist in
formulating and examining
national development plans.
Conscious of the paramount
importance of this declaration
the signatory countries declare
that the inter-American system
is now entering a new phase
where to its institutional, legal
cultural, and social accomplish
rmentS, will be added under
freedom and democracy, i'm
mediate and tangible measures
to secure a better life for the
present and future generations
of this hemisphere.
The ideas reflected in this
declaration point to the mag
nitude of the content of the
approved resolutions, the texts
of which constitute the only
source that can be referred to
in applying the concepts which
comprise the establishment of
an Alliance for Progress"
