United States and Japan trade officials say the pact shifts toward freer auto trade, with U.S. automakers and dealers gaining better access and Japanese buyers promised more U.S. parts and vehicles. President Clinton hailed the deal as moving cars and parts both ways after two decades of dispute.

He urges balancing the budget by 2005 with narrower Medicare and welfare cuts, while seeking a proper path with Republicans.
