Sen George D Aiken RAI

the fact that three Kenirxiy wives
are anticipating
He suggests that the next cam-

WASHINGTON COLUMN
Seek Bigger roreign Aid
Role for Private InvOstórS
BY FETED EDSON
Washington Correspondent
Newspaper Enterprise Assn -
WASHINGTON--(NEA)--Endorsing recommendations of the
- 7 President's Committee to Strengthen the Security of the Free
World headed by Gen Lucius D Clay a private research otgan-
ization here has called for greater emphasis on private enter-
— - prise in foreign aid by both giving and receiving nations
" Promoting this proposal is the International Economic Policy'
- Assn whose president N R Danielian is former head of the
Great Lakes-St Lawrence River Assn
Supporting the new organization are such bli companiCS as
coa Chrysler Ford International Interhationat Telephone
nd Telegraph Koppers Monsanto Pfizer Owens-Corning
Owens Illinois and others
Their recommendations to be made to Senate and Itouse
committees considering next year's foreign aid program in-
- - elude:
- Strengthen the Dickentooper amendment which
— denies US aid to countries expropriating property without
compensation
Extend US investment guarantee programs to more
countries
Reorganize US Agency for International Develop
nient—AID—to give private Investment a isreater role
Define specifically the areas in which government-to
government financing for public enterprises should be
limited so that the private sector can be developed more
fully
Ericotrage all forms of investment by private public
- ond co-operative Sources in accordance with the political
and rconomic system of each country so as to get multi!
Olcity of ownership and maximum economic growth
-
THESE RECOMMENDATIONS are based on a finding that
there is not enough capital available from all forms of saving
and taxation to meet the demands of the developing countries
It is concluded that the United States has over-extended itzelf
in trying to meet too much of this demand
About one-third of the US natimial debt of $303 billicnt
-- is attributed to post-World War Ii foreign all program
- a Of this about $66 billion has been 7 grants and $81 billion
in loans some of which now are being repaid
From 1950 through 1962 the US balance of payments dell-
cits has totaled $26 billion
THE US FOREIGN TRADE positiOn also has teed s1ittin4
to America's disadvantage While the volume of US exports
— - has been rising exports of other countries have been rising too
International Economic Policy Assn estimates the US would
- need $9 billion increase in exports to balance its trade position
After World War II the American aid effort was directed
to putting US dollars in foreign hands for their recovery
The process may have been carried too far
It is now necessary to ask Europe Japan and other countries
to pay a larger share of development costs
Direct American private investments overseas have risen
from $118 billion in 1950 to $347 billion in 1961
— Of the $37 billion earnings from foreign invertments in 1961
at billion was reinvested 527 billion returned to the US

the parent is even more convinced
that the child needs strict discip-
line because he's acting like a
