Pit 4A , EUGENE UtGISlXS-GUAKD, Tbun.. Mr. 11. 1M Touchy Report Probes $100-BHlion Aid Tab f P LS A. 17 JEWELS WALTHAM4 WASHINGTON 11 Tola! l.S. foreign aid aince World War II will climb above the 1100-billmn mark this year. How well the giant oversea! assistance program promotes U. S. security and how it could be refashioned to do a better job is the subject of a control versial report by a presidential! advisory committee headed by Gen. Lucius D. Clay. Aides said a final version of; the Clay report was made avail able to President Kennedy Thursday. The report is ex- pected to be made public this weekend. Figures furnished by the Agency for International De velopment, which administers U.S. aid, list $97.7 billion worth of military and economic help to 111 countries and foreign Croups from July 1, 1945 through mid-1962. Topping Z Billion Though detailed statistics for the current fiscal year have not yet been worked out, the over all total is certain to push past $100 billion. That's because Con gress last fall voted another $3.9 billion in new aid funds and other Items like surplus food disposals abroad have been top ping $2 billion a year. France, with $9.4 billion, and Britain, with $8.7 billion, still rank 1-2 as the largest total re ceivers of postwar American aid. The Western allies got the . bulk of their U.S. financial help in the early postwar years when the Marshall Plan focused on European recovery. Far More to Asia SU3EEE flfe. IH3EBB I LLbj Jlinil 0 tv miuioNs or douaks USal. ; I - W Aid Charti (AP Wlrepholo) Chart shows the ten largest recipients , of U.S. foreign aid in the fiscal year which ended last June 30. Statictics ; are from the aid-administering agency, the Agency for International Develop ment. India received the biggest .amount, $638.1 millions, while Japan received the least, $162.1 millions. . Today, the aid pattern is dif ferent. With Europeans now prosperous and dispensing aid themselves, U.S. aid now focuses on under-developed countries and poorer lands pressed by the Communists. Thus, far more American as sistance has gone to nations like India, Korea, South Vict Nam and Turkey since the end of the Marshall Plan in 1952 than to West European countries. In 1962, India was the biggest U. S. aid recipient with $838 million, bringing her over-all total to nearly $4 billion. Pakl with $439 million, making a $1.9 billion total. Turkey got $356 million for a $3.9 billion total while Korea received $345 mil lion, pushing her total to $5.4 billion. "., ., Other Changes, Too France, with $51 million, and Britain, with $25 million are still listed as U. S. aid receivers in 1962 but this is all in arms assistance connected with the common North Atlantic defense effort. American aid has undergone other changes, too. In the 1949 52 Marshall Plan years, all but si an was next highest in 1062 $3 billion of the $19 billion in Algeria Waits Paris Reply To Demand for A-Test End ALGIERS Hi The Algerian government waited uneasily Thursday for an answer to ils demand that France end nu clear testing in the Sahara. Premier Ahmed Ben Bella and the Algerian National As sembly made the demand Wednesday in calling for revi nion of the agreement giving France military bases in Algeria and its Saharan territory. Trouble is sure to follow if French President Charles tie O.aullo Ignores the plea, as he did Tunisia's demand in July, 1061, for French evacuation of the Bucrle base. The Tunisians attacked the base, and 3,000 lunisian lives were lost. There was no official com ment in' Paris on the Algerian demand. Ben Bella's demand for revi sion of the military agreements was prompted by an under ground atomic explosion which the Algerians said France set off in the Sahara testing ground Monday. The Algerian Assembly approved his stand by a near unanimous vote. The French lest violated the sovereignly of newly independ ent Algeria and was "a direct menace against the population," Ben Bella tnld the assembly. The premier implied that he would demand reduction of France's slay in all the Alge rian bases it retained under the Evian independence agreements and a pledge not to use them for nuclear tests in the interim U. S. overseas economic help went out as grants, or gifts. By 1962 the emphasis had changed to easy term loans aimed at stimulating economic develop ment. Of. the $5.2 billion in U.S. economic aid dispensed in 1962, $2.9 billion was in loans and $2.3 billion in grants. The $1.5 billion in arms aid, however, re mained almost entirely grants as before. Wider Range Used Of the $97.7-billion cumula tive total, $66.6 billion has been in economic aid of which $42.7 billion was grants. Military as sistance totaled $31 billion, all except $279 million in grants. The American aid program al so has used a wider variety of measures in recent years, rang ing from food-for-peace dispos als of U. S. farm surpluses to the Peace Corps. The biggest of the new pro grams doilarwise is food-for- pcace. Accounting for only a negligible portion of the U. S. aid total in Marshall Plan years, the food-for-peace outlay was listed at $1.6 billion in 1962. The 1962 spending for the Peace Corps, a Kennedy inno vation, was reported at $29.6 million.
