The bill also contains $87.400.000 for various special programs. The Senate is not unfamiliar with the types of expenditures authorized by these programs. Some of these have been going on for some time as. for example. our contribution to the United Nations Refugee Fund. the Childrens Fund. the U. N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees. assistance to voluntary agencies in shipping relief parcels abroad. the Atoms for Peace program. and the Malaria Eradication Fund. The sections involving special and contingency assistance have been revised in this years legislation as fully explained in our committee report. In rewriting these sections a step forward has been taken toward clarifying the categories of aid as generally recommended by the Senates special committee last year.
