to honor our longmstanding commitment to Panama 27/ concerning
a bridge over or tunnel under the Canal and the relocation of
the railroad station in Panama.
38. We should continue our nine-year old point 4 program
in the area at about the current level of expenditure of 20
millions annually for the bilateral program and 1 million for
the multilateral OAS programs It should remain a technical
assistance as distinguished from a grant-in-aid program or a
program of economic development; should devote its principal
efforts to the fields of agriculture, health and education in
which the IIAA has acquired experience; should keep within
reasonable limits the number of United States technicians which
it sends to the field so as not to arouse nationalistic
prejudices: and should be careful to avoid duplicating the
efforts of the United Nations and other international organiza=
tions which have undertaken Point 4 type projects in the area.
It is essential that the administration of the program be COm
ordinated in an effective way with our foreign policy objectives.
39. Our program of economic aid to Latin Anerica is small
(annual expenditures of about 20 millions for technical assistance,
4 nillions for the inter American highway and Rama Road, and 40
millions

Consideration should be given to liquidating these commit-
ments by extending a nore productive kind of aid, such as un-
matched highvay funds.
