Dulles Tells Intention s Of Stepping -Up Spending WASHINGTON Wl Secretary of State Dulles announced Tuesday the administration wants to step up Its foreign aid spending by 200 million dollars next year, and will ask Congress for a $4,900,000,000 appropriation. All of the contemplated increase in spending would be for economic help a field In which Russia has recently shown great activity. Alluding to this, Dulles said the United Stales "seeks no monopoly In rendering economic assistance," but declared "It would seem unnat ural for the Soviet rulers to pro vide economic aid to other peoples than the peoples they already rule are themselves In dire need." He added: "We hope that Soviet economic aid is not offered as a Trojan horse to penetrate, and then take over, independent countries." Dulles told a news conference he regretted very much a misun derstanding which he said had given congressional leaders the impression the program to be sub mitted In January would be about the snme as that voted this year. Dulles said the new money re quest to be laid before Congress will cover both military and eco nomic and that the jump of about 42.200,000,000 over this year's pro gram is to be explained In large part by a need to keep the pipe line of military supplies full. He drew a distinction between appropriations and prosDective ex penditures, explaining that actual spending on foreign aid will be only 200 million dollars more than the present fiscal year, ending next June 30. The money appropriated, but not to be spent in the new fiscal year, would odd to the reserve of for elgn aid spending authority for use In future years. It would raise this to about seven billion dollars. Dulles said the requested new appropriations will be about $1,900. 000.000 for foreign economic aid relief from pain ana rneumatism Mentholatum Rub includes the latest discoveries for relief ... a combination of active in gradients for extra-deep skin penetrating power.

Dulles said in response to re porters' queslions that he felt eco nomic and military assistance from the United States to otfer free nations will have to go on r an indefinite period of time. Thus he said It Is vital to keep the backlog at a high level so there will be no break In deliveries. ' Meantime Sen. Potter (R-Mlch) said he would look "with a jaun diced eye" any request for five billion dollars in new money and spending authority. Potter is a member of the Senate Appropria tions Committee, which would have to pass on foreign aid proposals. Sen. Mansfield (D-Mont), a mem ber of the Senate Foreign Rela tions Committee, said the proposed five 'billion dollar appropriation "seems too big to me." Yesterday Mansfield said that if the administration Is getting ready to ask tor that much, it has "broken faith with the Democratic and Republican leaders of Con gress." "They are asking twice as much as they asked for this year after promising congressional leaders less than a week ago their requests will be similar to this year's," he said in a followup interview today. After a White House briefing last week several congressional leaders of both parties said they were told the foreign aid appropriations re quest for the 1957 fiscal year would be only sngntiy more man me $2,700,000,000 (b) the lawmakers approved for the current year. Actual expenditures have been running higher than the amount of new funds provided yearly by Con gress, thus eating into the reserve.
