Underway
On Tariffs
By PHIL NEWS0M
Foreign News Analyst


In Brussels and Geneva de-
alterations are under way which
eventually will effect the peck
etbooks of more than 185 mil
lion Americans and more than
172 million Europeans.
Eventually, the outcome could
affect the price of such widely
diverse items as an Italian
necktie in Kansas City and an
American frozen chicken in Mu-
mich.
In Geneva a panel of experts
appointed by an organization
bearing the formidable title of
General Agreement on Tariffs
and Trade (GATT) is attempt
ing to arbitrate the so-called
chicken war" between the
United States and the six ma
tons Of the European Common
Market.
The United States charges
that Common Market levies
against American frozen chick
en- literally has frozen Ameri-
can poultry producers out OF the
community. 1t sets the loss at
S46 million. The Common Mar
ket claims the loss is only SIG
million.
RetaliatOry Tariffs
And, unless the Common
Market community makes some
sort Of amends, the United
States threatens retaliatory tar
ifs on two dozen or more items
imported from Europe.
AT stake is much more than
the frozen chicken market. The
United States annually sells to
Europe more than a billion dol
lars worth Of agricultural
goods. And the fear is that a
high protective tariff system
eventually could bar a large
portion of that total from Eu-
rope.
The Geneva arbitrator may
come up with a decision this
week.
For the future Of the Com
mon Market, and its ultimate
hopes for a politically united
Europe, the problem under
study in Brussels is even thor
nier.
Foreign ministers of West
Germany, France, Italy, Bel
GUM, Holland and Luxembourg
are attempting to agree upon
a Common Market agricultural
policy.
French President Charles de
Gaulle, with ambitions to make
France the breadbaSket of Eu-
rope, has limited he may pull
out of the Common Market alto
gether unless agreement is
reached by the end of the years.
De Gaulle'S chief political
strength lies with the French
farmer who grows increasingly
unhappy as he is caught in a
squeeze between falling prices
for his bumper crops and stead
lily increasing costs.
Thus the pressure on De
Gaulle.
Potent Political Force
De Gaulle's chief opposition is
the West German farmer. Ger
man agriculture is less efficient
than the French, but enjoys the
most government protection of
any in Europe. In West Ger
many, the farmer also is a po-
tent political force.
And, unhappily for the Ger
man farmer, any agreement on
a common policy must come at
his expense.
A current proposal would aid
the French farmer but is esti-
mated to cost German farmers
$40 million a year.
The chances for agreement
before the end OF the year seem

either.

At Odds with u. 8. Policy
The Senator also revealed he
is completely at odds with
American policy in Africa. Not
only is he opposed to Assistant
Secretary for African Affairs
@. Mennen Williams, who said:
africa is for the Africans" He
thinks it is a European sphere
Of influence and we should pull
out entirely except for tech
meal aid.
He is against anti-colonial-
ism, too. He thinks the occupy
ing countries should not give
the countries independence,
but education, instead.
He thought the Peace Corps
was doing q good Job in the
countries he was allowed to
visit, but found a growing bu-
reaucracy.
The Senator has described
all the events of his disaster
ridden nine-week, solo trip in
a 274-page report which he
submitted to the Senate yester-
day. Those who miss the book
can see the picture. The Sen
ator took a two-hour film
