Mr.. Goldberg remarked with a
laugh that when he was with
the union he sometimes helped
close down mills in labor
strikes.
Now, he said, his mission Is
to restore mills to full produc-
ton.
Summing up his interviews
with unemployed workers and
industry, business and local
leaders in Illinois. Indiana.
Michigan. Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania, the Labor Secretary
said:
II yound one dominant
theme and that is that people
want work"
william L. Bait, jr., PennSyl-
vania's director Of industry and
labor, who with Pittsburgh
Mayor Joseph Barr. greeted Mr..
Goldberg, remarked that nearly
one out Of 10 unemployed in
the country are in Pennsyl-
vania.
Mr.. Goldberg agreed that the
States idle-worker situation is
grave.
Speaking Of the steel in
duStry. the Labor Secretary
said he has great confidence
in the induStry's future and
feels it has not reached its
full potential.
II do not share the view that
the steel industry is over ex-
panded," he said.
He said he and President
Kennedy are confident that

administration programs can
restore full employment.
Mr.. Goldberg arrived at the
Greater Pittsburgh Airport from
Columbus, Ohio, where he said
that failure to deal with an
unemployment problem would
be "a denial Of responsibility
by us all"
He reported that Ohio has
more communities with sub
stantial unemployment than in
Illinois, Indiana and Michigan,
States he has already visited on
his tour.
The labor secretary ran into
some business opposition to
Mr.. Kennedy's program to pro-
vide $1.2 billion emergency aid
to idled workers, a plan Mr..
Goldberg said would be fol-
lowed by a proposal for a
permanent upgradlng Of un-
employment compensation ben
efitS, which the President will
recommend in April.
Limits Urged
Herschel Atkinson, executive
director Of the Ohio Chamber
Of Commerce, and Don Wiper
of the Ohio Manufacturers
Association questioned whether
business can meet the added
payroll tax PROPOSED to finance
the plan and urged benefits be
extended only to cases OF
demonstrated need.

to use its influence within the
DECD to make sure that ar
rangements between the two
European trading groups-the
Common Market and the Eu-
ropean Free Trade Association
do not discriminate against
United States exports.
Elimination Of discrimina-
ton against United States ex-
ports would help reduce the
deficit in the American bal
ance Of payments by permit
ting the United States to earn
more dollars abroad. The pay
mentS deficit results from the
fact that the United States
spends, lends and gives away
more money abroad than 1t re-
ceives from foreign sources.
Perhaps more important
than the trade factor, accord
ing to administration officials,
is the prospect that DECD will
ease the burden foreign aid
places on the United States
balance Of payments.
DECD will have a committee
for development assistance
that will try to encourage in
dustrial nations Of Europe to
increase their aid to under
developed countries.
Sharing OF the economic aid
burden, according to this view
point, will help bring about
equilibrium in the free worlds
balance Of payments. Officials
here are almost as disturbed
about West Germany's 81 bill
lion annual balance Of pay
ments surplus as they are
about the United States $3.8
billion deficit.
West Germany and other ma
tionS in similar circumstances
can reduce their payments sur
pluses partly by budgeting large
sums for aid to underdeveloped
countries on a regular basis.
President Kennedy accorded
DECD a prominent place in his
message to Congress on the
balance Of payments. He urged
prompt ratification. Other ma
tions are awaiting United States
ratification before acting.
Formal establishment Of
DECD is scheduled for Septem-
ber If all goes we'll.
In addition to the United
States and Canada. prospective
members are the United King
dom. France, West Germany,
Italy, Iceland, Norway, Sweden,

Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain,

Greece, Turkey and Ireland.

see no hope for an economic
pickup any time soon.
Mr.. Goldgerb again called on
all American to unite q work
ing partnership" to reverse the
economic slide and restore full
prosperity and employment.
These problems cannot be
solved by business alone, by
labor alone, or by the govern
'ment," he said. I'VE all have a
stake in it. We don't want an
other WPA (the depreSSion-era
relief agency. We want to help
provide jobs through private
industry"

Officials list three broad
functions Of the donation
DECD: Coordination of pol
icies for economic growth, solu-
ton Of international trade
problems, and coordination of
economic aid for underdevel-
oped countries in Asia, Africa

States and Canada expect to
join 18 on-Communist Euro
pean nations as members of
DECD.
Protectionists, who favor re-
strictions against imports into

are trying to sell the idea that
the DECD Is a gimmick to re-
duce tariffs without congress
SioHaal consent.
Administration officials call
this nonsense. They emphasize
that DECD can make no bind
ing decisions without the un-
animous consent Of all 20
members. Furthermore, they
assert, DECD will not conduct
tariff negotiations.
DECD will provide a forum,
