BIGGEST STUMBLING BLOCK so far has been over, continuation of the Iraq Development Board on which Clifford Willson, former U. S. Bureau of Reclamation official, served as an American member with full advisory authority. , Under the former Iraq government about; 90 million dollars out of its annual oil revenues were assigned to the development board for Tigris and Euphrates valley powerj, irrigation and agricultural projects. This was one of the show places of the! Middle East. , But the new Iraq government has not: decided to continue it. Other programs on which the Iraq government has not decided on include land Improvement, agricultural economic analysis, farm credit, railway advisory mission, public administration and Water resource development. AMONG TH E , PROGRAMS whichj have been reactivated are education, farm training, sanitation, maternal and child health. Some projects N are in remote areas jwhere political stability has not been established and that delays work. The iAmericaa outlay for these projects has not been large. Iraq oil revenues covered most of the costs. U. S. expenditures this year were budgeted at 2.2 million dollars. Special assistance of $560,000 was also provided. It included $470,000 for police training which curiously enough has been without interruption. Iraq police are among those who are how making life difficult for American missions still in the country. In this they are aided, If not directed, by the Iraq army, for which the United States fur- nished millions of dollars worth of equipment.
