Foreign Trade
Boost Urged

More American businessmen
must be induced to enter the
foreign trade field if the
United States is going to
wipe out balance of payments
deficits, Commerce Secretary
Mueller told Congress today.
He also stressed the impor-
tance. of encouraging more for
eign travellers to visit the
United States.
Mr.. Mueller was the first
witness as the Senate Com
merce Committee began 10
days of hearings on this coun-
try's unfavorable trade balance.
Our exports will not in
crease sufficiently to balance
our accounts unless a sense of
national urgency is created.
Many thousands of business
men NOT now engaged in ex-
ports must enter this profitable
field" he said.
2-Year Loses High
Figures presented to the COM
mittee by the Treasury De-
partment show that in 1858
the United States lost $3.4 bill
lion in gold and liquid dollars.
In 1859 the situation deterior-.
ated further because of a de-
cline in merchandise trade
surplus and the United States
lost $3.7 billion in gold and
liquid dollars.
Mr.. Mueller testified that the
United States surplus in mer-
chandise exports should begin
to improve this year. But even
the most optimistic predictions
are not sufficient Ito reduce
the deficit in our balance of
payments to a tolerable level"
he said.
In advance of Mr.. Mueller's
testimony, the committee had
three advance suggestions from
its staff:
An improved promotion set
up to push foreign trade, a
system of export credit in
surance at least equal to those
of competitor countries, and
establishment of Federal
tourist bureau to promote more
travel here by foreigners.
No 1858 Export Gain
The staff report said that al
though the United States is by
far the worlds largest single
supplier of goods, its exports
last year showed no gain over
1858 and fell considerably be-
low the previous two years.
While United States exports
dropped IA per cent between
1856 and 1859, the report said,
exports of West Germany were
up 1922 per cent, French ex-
ports climbed 23.6 per cent
and Japanese exports were up
1872 per cent.
The report said the United
States last year, with exports
of 1852 billion and imports Of
$l5.3 billion, had the narrow
est margin of exports over i'm
ports since the 1930s.

Law Too Cumbersome
DR.. John D. Schultz, medical
director at District General
Hospital noted that many
patients now don't get ade-
quate treatment because the
law is too cumbersome, requir-
ing notarized statements from
two residents and two physi-
clans before a policeman can
act.
The proposed amendment
would eliminate the need for
a notary public and reduce the
statements to one from a resi-
dent and one from a physi-
clan.
DR.. Lebensohn criticized po-
lice use of paddy wagons" to
transport mental cases to a
hospital. He pointed out that
there are just as few criminal
types among the mentally i'll
as among healthy people.
He said he hoped a COM
munity atmosphere eventually
would develop here in which
more patients would seek men,
tai treatment. Eventually, he
said, the general public will
learn that such treatment has
no stigma attached.

remains to be demonstrated.

desirability of building the
team around men of Colavito's
character and popularity.
Let's put it this way, I'm not
in such a hurry to win the pen
