PARIS VI franc Wednes
day urged the United States to
join la organizing a new interna
tional agency to distribute eco
nomic aid to the worlds needy
French officials ssid Foreign
Minister Christian Plnesu 1 s i d
the plan before U.S. Secretary of
State Dulles in a two-hour confer
ence at the foreign office.
Tha two ministers met shortly
after Dulles flew into Paris (or
what Western diplomats say may
be a momentous session of the
Ministerial Council of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO).
Before leaving Washington.
Dulles said one of the main aims
of the session is to plsn the re
shaping of NATO "into something
more then a military alliance."
The secretary apparently favors
widening NATO into the political
and economic fields to meet the
"challenge of Russia's worldwide
trade and aid offensive.
Informants said the French plan
Calls for a new aid agency set
up outside NATO snd "within the
framework of the United Nations
or some similar world organiza
tion." Presumably Russia would be
tree to Join.
The agency would aim not only
at bolstering underdeveloped coun
tries of Asia, Africa snd the Mid
dle East, but also such depressed
EuroDean areas as Southern Italy
Plnesu told Dulles the agency
must be kept outside of NATO
to avoid having it looked on as
another instrument of the cold
war.
The informants declined to give
Dulles' reaction to the plan. An
American spokesman also refused
comment.
Pineau plans to present his
icheme to the council at Its two
day session opening Friday.
The Dulles-Plneau talk opened
n intensive five-day round ol dis
cussions on world affairi among
the foreign ministers of the IS
Atlantic Pact partners.
