Snyder told the sen ate foreign relations committee the council believes it would not be wise "to force countries likely to receive financial aid from the United States to liquidate the private hold ings of their nationals as a condi tion to receiving such aid." Such a course had been suggested In debate on the recovery program Snyder said the council, however, favors aiding the governments con cerned in converting these holdings into dollars to help them in their international trade. Snyder described the $4,300,000,000 as "free assets." which never had been blocked during the war. He said about S2.3O0.OO0.000 represents holdings of British citizens.
