Program Extends
Technical Help
—'»—
Some thirty countries are ex
pected to contribute about $20,
000,000 to continue t technical as
sistance program that has been
launched by the United Nations.
The United States will give the
largest share — about half —
and the other countries will make
up the balance
Sixteen nations have already
applied for assistance in a couple
of dozen different fields. Already
specialists have gone to Ecuador
to take a census, to help Haiti
fight disease and to help the
Philippines make paper. The
backlog of requests, it is hoped,
will be taken care of under the
expanded program.
In addition to the dispatch of
experts to assist in the promotion
of beneficial programs in the var
ious countries. the United Nations
has arranged for sixty-eight spec
ialists to be trained and has
sponsored training centers in var
ious places.
The scope of the projects, it
seems, parallels the purop.se of
the Point Four in _ President
Truman's program ot world re
habilitation. Results will natural
ly be slow because it is impos
sible to change the customs and
habits of peoples overnight. None
thcless, for the amount of money
to be spent, the program offers
promise ot promoting the wel
fare ot under developed peoples
by assisting them m enterprises
that will eventually achieve per
manent results.
