meeting the, European countries
have made it clear that trade
problems take precedence over
the question of aid to under
developed areas. All Of them,
however. recognize, at least in
principle, the need for a more
concerted effort by major capi-
tal-exporting nations along this
line.
The work of the new organi-
zation in the aid field again is
seen as a fairly modest one.
Some suspect that a major OBJ
jective is to encourage a large
contribution from West Ger
many, which up to now has
limited itself largely to short
term commercial loans rather
than the cheap long-term cred
its that are needed in most
underdeveloped areas.
Members Listed
At the beginning the aid
group will consist of the United
States, Britain, France, Italy,
Canada, Portugal, Belgium and
a representative of the Common
Market. Eventually it is hoped
that some other exporting
countires-notably Japan-may
become members.
Originally the United States,
which pushed for the aid group,
Evening star., 1960-01-15

expected a smaller membership.
There was some surprise that
Portugal and Belgium asked to
join. 1t is thought that both
countries. which have overseas
commitments of their own but
little export capital to spare,
signed up largely for domestic
political reasons.
The purpose of the new group
which is still unnamed-will
be confined to consultation and
advice. in which American ex-
perience in the field of foreign
aid will be its chief contri-
button. No attempt will be
made, it is said, to decide how
much will be given to what
nations. 1t is hoped, however,
that oVerlapping-and in some
cases even competitive aid
programs can be better CO.
ordinated under the new
system.
With the departure of Mr..
Dillon and his ministerial COL
leagues, work of the conference
now will be taken over by a
committee Of four wise men"
representing France, the
United States, Britain and
Greece. The job of completely

is expected to involve long and
complex negotiations, despite

structive ideas instead Of in
suits and complaints.
Though no final solutions to
the problems of rival trade
areas have been worked out
here, the influence that the
United States and Canada have
been able to exert in smoothing
over antagonisms and suspi-
cions is promising for the fu-
ture.
The new organization, which
will consist of all 18 members
of the present OEEC plus the
United States: Canada and rep
reSentativeS of the economic
commission of the Common
Market, is not designed pri-
marily as a bridge between the
two trade groups. But it will
provide a larger forum in
which the mutual problems can
be thrashed out-and eventual
ly mechanism for a progress
sive lowering of trade restrlc-
tlons between the two groups.
Long Range Problem
At best. the problem OF grad
ually reducing trade restric-
tions on a general level is rec
ognized as a long-range PROP
osition. The new organization
itself probably will not be in
operation for another l8
months because of the need
for congressional approval.
In the meantime, however,
Undersecretary Dillon has re-
ceived assurances from a num-
Der of countries that they will
continue to reduce import
quotas on American goods. And
several special subcommittee
will begin studying the problem
of co-ordinating trade policy
within the European area.

Real Skill Called For
The impression of most OBJ
servers here is that the meet
ing, headed by United States
Undersecretary of State C.
Douglas Dillon, has been Sue
cessful in proportion to the
modesty Of its detectives. 1t has
called for real skill to achieve
any positive results from a
group of nations which ap-
preached the conference with
considerable suspicion and a
general attitude of Whats in
it for me?"
From the American stand
point, the major result has been
to get agreement in principle
for an organization with which
the United States and Canada
can be fully associated. The in
tereSt here is to insure that
the development of smaller
European trade blocS will not
result in ruinous discrimination
against American exports.
From the point of view Of
European problems the deci-
sions made here represent at
least a start at developing a
more cooperative attitude be-
tween rival trade organizations.
