Two and Two-Economic Problem

est charges" will, he said,
cost the taxpayers almost a
half-billion dollars this fiscal
year.
People will understand him,
even II they do not compre-
bend the complex agricul-
tural problem. when he says
the wheat being grown this
year will go into storage and
not to the tables Of the peo-
pie.
Last year a loaf Of bread,
for example. contained wheat
with a farm value of "a
cents. The average retail cost
was 1913 cents.
Wheat, corn and cotton are
the big political crops-as
well as industrial. There must
be a farm program. federally
supported. But what it should
be is a mystery.
All Of this is tied also to
the news Of the cut in British
steel prices. Many American
users will buy it. The COM
panies now negotiating say a
wage increase will mean pric-
ing steel out Of the market.
The unions say profits are at
an all-time high and that
there is no real competition
between the companies.
Whatever the truth of that
debate, the United States
will find itself losing more
markets If 1t does not find a
formula for getting more OF
its goods into world trade.
The European Common Mar
ket is growing. The Russians
have concluded a trade agree
ment with Britain and have
economic delegations in Latin
America.
All this also adds up like
two and two.

porting on an immense scale
because she provides the most
prosperous and one Of the
most wide-open markets in
the world"
It isn't often that q British
writer commends the United
States for its tariff policies.
but the same article goes on
to say:
"A great deal Is heard Of
American tariffs or import
restrictions. but the fact is
that her policies are remark
ably liberal. Many Of her
tariffs. particularly on in
dustrial goods, are low by the
standards Of the advanced
industrial countries-as an
example. cars pay 10 per cent
going into the United States
compared with about 20 per
cent in Germany and 80 per
cent in France and Britain"
It is further pointed out
by Mr.. Day that protection
Of American manufacturing
and industry by quotas is so
rare as to make headline
news. whereas Britain and
other European countries
still protect many sensitive
industries In this way. even
though there are no longer
any real Acknowledgement
reasons for doing it."
Despite the alleged weak
ness Of the American dollar.
there is an optimism and q
buoyancy in world economic
affairs today which has not
been noted since prewar days.
The feeling is that even the
smaller countries are begin
ming to show signs Of indus
trial progress and that the
interchange Of goods is pro-
ceeding on a wider and wider
scale each year.
All in all. the atmosphere
in international business it
self is decidedly on the OPP
timistic side. and the only
clouds on the horizon are
those which arise from time
to time when political devel-
opments threaten to disturb
the outlook for peace.

Of experience in this area: he

on his actual journeys by
using his campaign-learned
techniques to establish what
press agentry calls people-to-

These efforts have not been
universally successful, the
striking example being Vene-
zuela. They have in fact led
to demands that all American
officials restrict their public
appearances abroad to strict

In any event, during Secre-
tary Of State Dulles lifetime.
the Vice Presidents efforts to
frame a European trip which
would take him behind the
Iron Curtain were diplomat
ically prevented. Secretary Of
State Herter, whatever may
be his misgivings about Mr..
Nixon's presence in such ex-
plosive areas at a moment Of
crisis, lacks the authority and
prestige to put a tight rein on
the ambitious Vice President.
DR.. Eisenhower by his very

The NATO crisis. provoked
by. what amounts actually to
an ultimatum from President
Charles de Gaulle that
France become an active
member Of the Anglo-Ameri-
can directorate Of the NATO,
has been inevitable ever since
he assumed power a year ago.
Chancellor Adenauer's
change Of heart about retir-
ing to the honorary post Of
President Of the German
Federation is only a corollary
Of Gen. de Gaulle's stand. In
fact, the revulsions In the
two key members Of the
Western alliance amount to
a rebellion against what the
French government describes
as the dictatorship" from
London and Washington.
There can be little doubt
about Frances determination
to assume a leading II
not a determining role

pay attention to straws in the

DAVID LAWRENCE

LONDON-There Is a feel
ing of genuine satisfaction
in Europe over the economic
trend in the United States.
There is a sense Of relief,
not only that America has
weathered her recession with
out resorting to spending
sprees but that the favorable
effects Of Americas recovery
have been so quickly felt
throughout the world.
The crusade which Presi-
dent Eisenhower has led to
attain a balanced budget has
won admiration in economic
circles everywhere. Europe's
experience with imitation Is
still recent enough for APP
prehension to arise when q
country as important as the
United States appears to be
yielding to the doctrine that
mere spending of government
funds is a panacea for eco
nomic ills.
Some British businessmen
with whom this correspondent
has talked are impressed with
the recent tendency Of Amer
lean investors to ask about
stocks in European compa-
MES. This is a rather surpris-
ing development. because Of
a tendency on the part OF
Americans for many years to
ignore investments in Euro
pean securities. There Is Gu
riosity here as to the proba-
BILE cause of this trend. The
most plausible answer. Of
course, is that margins Of
profit for many American
companies will tend to be-
come narrower and narrower
as labor unions inside the
United States arbitrarily push
costs upward and as the
Government uninterruptedly
takes q 50 per cent share Of
the profits.
In Britain there are some

It is interesting to note
the discussion going on here
about the alleged weakness
Of the American dollar.
particularly since SO much
publicity has been given to
the outflow Of gold from the
United States. Writing In
the London Sunday Observer.
Alan Day says:
"A great deal too much
play has been made recently
with the idea Of the weak
ness Of the dollar.
obviously, there is a
strong temptation for us in
Britain to take pleasure
when sterling's international
rival is under pressure while
sterling Is standing well In
world esteem. But 1t would be
wise to restrain any tendency
to chortle at our friends mis-
fortunes: II they were really
to become serious. the effects
on US would be very unpleas-
ant.
Fortunately. there is no
reason to think that the
dollar is at present under any
real pressure.
Sterling and the dollar
must hang together. We can
not hope to let the dollar
hang separately. ;.
las far as the flows Of pay
ment sent to and out Of the

the current position is one

The presence of President

Milton s. Eisenhower, presi-
dent Of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity - In Vice President
Nixon's mission to Moscow
next month will dilute Mr..
Nixon's carefully planned i'm
pact on the Russians, world
opinion and the press.
DR.. Eisenhower stands in a
unique relationship to his
more famous brother. The
President has repeatedly
called him "the smartest man
I know" They are in con-
slant. close communication.
The reliance Of the President
on his academic brother is a
major element Of the power
structure of Washington.
DR.. Eisenhower's impor-
lance in the formation Of the
Presidents ideas and opinions
is something the men in the
Kremlin will not ignore. He
has entree, intimacy and in
f1uence.
The Vice President did not
announce that DR.. Eisenhow-
er would accompany him, the
White House announced 1t.
This in itself is significant.
So is the timing Of the an
nouncement.
The plans for what prom
Used to be a splendid, full

porters were almost COM
pleted. The schedule included
visits by Mr.. Nixon with So
Wet leaders, travel across the
Soviet Union en- route home
and appearances on Soviet
television, all to be covered
by the numerous press.
In these circumstances, ad-
dition Of DR.. Eisenhower to
the party has intrigued
Washington. The question
arises as to whether his in
clusion is fact-f1nding or po-
litical or both.
