These figures were made public by the United States Department of Commerce, which also said that foreign reserves outside the Iron Curtain reached an all time high of twenty three billion dollars in readily available gold and United States and Canadian dollars at the end of 1953. In spite of these Increased reser ves, the department said it is till uncertain to what extent other countries are approaching the point where they could get along without United States aid. ' Allies getting direct military help in the form of equipment made in this country received $4, 300, 000, 000 worth of such equipment in 1953. Additionally, fr iendly countries received about two billion dollars' worth of nonmill tary governmental aid. That made a direct aid total of $6, 300,000,000.
