One of the toiH’.s most im- p<jrtant provisions is on textile •tnd apparel imixnts. I .strongly supix)rt tliis entire bill beeaase we urgently no(>d new directions in the nation’s trade policies. Our country has invited a vast flow of foreign imports Into our domestic market, 'hiis was done in the .belief that our commit- ment to free .trade would cause other nations to lower their bar riers that have kept out Amer; lean-'made products, it was a gamble that has failed and it is ATTENTION CAR OWNERS: DON'T WAIT Custom Auto-Painting Co.

The bin passed by the House looks at this problem and makes a balanced Judgment which says, in effect, that we want to trade freely and fairly, that wo seek faiir access to foreign markets, that our ntarket- place is open, but that we cannot Mis.

There are many Americans who are emotionally locked to the con cept of free trade. They are per fectly willing to overlook thqfact that our relatively open markets are not reciprocated in the poli cies followed by our pro«?)crous friends abroad. Certainly, this at titude was strongly expros-sed in the debate last we<^ and 1 am glad that It did not prevail when the final vote was taken. In spite of charges to the con trary, this bill will not change the fact that the United States has the lowest average level of trade restrictions of any major industrialized country in thq world. However, the balance that this new legislation provides will strengthen the hand of the Presi dent as he negotiates voluntary trade restrictions with foreign countries. For two years. Presi- deuit HlXion ihas attempted to ne gotiate such an agreement con- ocffning the growth of Japanese textile imports. The Jaoanese have refused, in my opinion, be cause it has been In their best interest to refase. This experience has demonstrated that the Presi dent must have a stronger law to back up his representations at the negotiating table. It is time that Wo assert our national interest without turning our backs on fait trading practices. I would predict that once this legislation is en acted, the Japanese will negoti ate a textile and apparel agree ment very qui.'siy.

It does not take long to see th.at in any trade war, Japan and Wc.sfern Europe have a great deal more to lose than to gain. Japan certainly does not buy any proiuet.s from us now that she can obtain eise- w’here. On the other hand, the United States buys about one have to pay more for textile and apparel products. This assump tion is apparently baaed upon the belief that imports would be banned from the American inar- ket. Cotton textile imports are already controlled through nego tiated agreements and prices of these products have not risen any more than the prices of synthe tics and woolens for w'hich we have sought a similar arrange ment. At the same time, we must look to a method for dealing with similar difficulties suffered by other U. 3. industries. This is the minimum thrust that a trade bill today should-4ake and I feel that the present measure would restore a rational approach to our hade problems. The road ahead for the trade policy legislation will not be easy. Predictions about what the Senate will do to the bill aje not encouraging and the White House is expressing dissatisfaction. Cer tainly, this fight will continue and I intend to devote my full energies to overcoming the objec- third of Japan’., manufactured!^®"® theJjai so that it can goods.
