COP Criticizes
Secret DEALINGS
On Trade PdCts

WASHINGTON. May 7 (INS}-
Ten Republican members OF The
House ways and means committee
and one Democrat today bitterly
criticized Americas reciprocal
trade agreements and those VINO
draft them.
Their dissenting minority report
on bill to extend the trade agree
ments program for three additional,
years said.
Congress has no supervision
or control over treaties what
ever, no matter how adversely
they may affect domestic inter-
ests.
THE treaties are not even
made public until after they
have been negotiated and signed
by the President. The negotia-
lions are carried on In secret nv

bureaucrats who have never met

concerned with using the act as
n vehicle TO effect a drastic gen
eraI tariff revision than with
driving any advantageous bar

The report followed issuance o
the majority opinion, in which i
of the Is Democratic committee
members urged passage Of ;h'
legislation. The majority repor
vigorously opposed proposed con
greSsionsl veto power over th'
