oversight and general foreign policy objectives. . . . The study [also] presents 



some of the problems which would be encountered in designing an evaluative 



comparison of the multilateral banks as well as an analytic comparison of 



their operations. In conclusion, the researchers offer several observations, 



highlighting problems which in their estimation have not received sufficient 



attention and suggesting items which deserve further consideration."

This study "proceeds on the assumption that there is interest in Congress 



in maintaining a U.S. role in the development process free of the drawbacks 



and shortcomings that have so often been ascribed to bilateral aid. Bilateral 



aid has been under increasing critical fire in recent years, and has lost the 



support of many people who formerly favored it. This report analyzes the 



following alternatives to bilateral aid: one, multilateral assistance; two, 



rescheduling and reduction of debt servicing by the developing countries; 



three, preferential tariff arrangements for the developing countries; and four, 



the encouragement of private investment by American Nationals in the less 



developed countries."
