SOVIET OFFERS OF AID
Opposition At Home Reported (Rec. 9 p.m.) WASHINGTON, January 21. United States officials are acting on the belief that there is potential opposition among the Russian people to the Soviet’s offers of economic aid to other countries, the American Associated Press said today. The -Secretary of State, Mr Dulles, was understood to have directed the Voice of America to try to broadcast to the Russian people, telling them of the aid offers. Reports to the United States State Department had said that the Soviet Government was not telling he people about these offers—the Soviet’s latest line in its cold war efforts. The belief in Washington was that the Prime Minister, Marshal Bulganin, and the Communist Party chief, Mr Nikita , Khrushchev, had decided it would be unwise to do so. United States Government experts who analysed the Soviet’s recently announced five-year plan said it showed that whatever wealth was exported by the Soviet Government to carry out its political designs could come only out of the living standard of the people.
