CAIN, Washington RALPH E. FLANDERS, Vermont II FOREWORD In considering Senate Resolution 8 and the problems involved in the implementation of the North Atlantic Treaty, many questions arise relating to the military expenditures of the various countries, the size of their armed forces, the military commitments of the United States, et cetera. In order that the Joint Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services Committees might have before them certain basic facts during their study of these problems, the staffs of the two committees have been asked to collect the information which appears in this pamphlet. This information has been drawn from various Government and public sources. Tom CONNALLY, Chairman. FEBRUARY 15, 1951. |
