New Look At Foreign Trade Policy Aimed by Kennedy

President Kennedy urged business and labor to back a bold foreign trade plan offering broad tariff cutting powers. He spoke to the National Association of Manufacturers in New York and the AFL-CIO in Miami, arguing trade boosts jobs and prosperity while seeking congressional authority to bargain on tariff reductions in broad categories. Jobless rate dipped to 6.1 percent in November with a 67,349,000 employment level, a monthly record.

Kennedy seeks recession standby authority for public works

President Kennedy told AFL-CIO delegates in Miami Beach that he would urge Congress to grant standby authority to start public works in a recession to curb unemployment. He cited November unemployment at 6.1 percent and total employment at 67,349,000, and pressed labor to back freer world trade to protect jobs. He warned that without new bargaining power to open overseas markets American industry and labor would lose jobs. He also called out discrimination against Negroes as a drag on democracy and the economy.
