Senators Seek Tariff Safeguards Amid Trade Debate
Washington senators opened debate on Eisenhower foreign trade bill with amendments to shield U.S. agriculture and defense production from imports. Mundt and 13 others push a plan to empower the president to raise tariffs or limit imports by up to 50 percent on farm commodities endangering parity. Symington proposes defense material protections, while Gore and Stevenson back a broader national trade policy and a three year extension.
