TRADE
WINDS
BY LOU SCHNEIDER

The new theme of Japanese
manufacturers of consumer goods
is Sell American" and they will
use United States advertising
methods to accomplish a new
sales push.
Expect strong promotion pro-
gram to start soon. 1t will cover
such items as cultured pearls,
woolens. porcelains, pottery. OPP
teal goods, canned tuna fish,
canned oranges, toys, cameras
and other specialized items.
The advertisements will en-
phasize that the offerings are of
top quality and worthy of higher
prices than quoted. The aim is to
smother opposition to imports of
japanese goods and change the
American opinion that all
japanese goods are Of poor
quality.
But the drive may run into
difficulties. Various American
trade groups are united against
the heavy import flow of Japa-
nese offerings. Cheap labor costs
there make American COMPETE
ton Improbable. The National
Council of Textile Industries has
asked both political parties to-
pledge prompt action to. curb
imports from low-wage nations"
Spokesman for the National
Association Of Shirt. Pajama g.
Sportswear Manufacturers say if
Congress doesn't act to give
domestic industries relief from
the cheap-goods import flood,
the case will be taken to the
consumer who will be urged to
spread a boycott movement.
Labor is cooperating because it
fears a loss of jobs.
Danger Signal
President Eisenhower agrees
that the steel price increases to
offset the wage-raise agreement
does wave a danger signal Of
imitation. He admits there is
nothing the Government can do
about it at this time, Initiation
means reduced purchasing power
