TOP SECRET S E C R E I U.S. EYES ONLY a 18 6 20. With respect to 17(d), if a substantial reduction in total expenditure through $8 to $9 billion=scould be achieved by a combination of the foregoing measures, there would still remain a deficiency of the order of $15 to $17 billion. It is recomnended that consideration be given to the possibility of U.S. end-item and sconomic assistance of that magnitude, beyond the aid currently requested of the Congress for FY 1952, for the total period through the Fiscal Year 1954. This would average at about 30% above the $6.2 billion authorization request for FY 1952 for NATO countries plus Germany, although it probably would involve a higher peak in authorizations in FY 1953. Some part of this amount should perhaps be available from a supplemental appropriation during FY 1952, to permit its timely obli- gation for end-item deliveries in FY 1953 or 1954 In the event that the problem considered in this memorandum is partly resolved by sone deforment of the MTDP build-up beyond the 1954 planning date, U.S. assistance of reduced but substantial size in FY 1955 should be considered. 21.
