Publicizes Arab boycott participant list by Commerce Dept
The Commerce Department released a list of 38 corporations that have complied with Arab boycott demands since Ford ordered disclosure. Major banks Bank of America and Citicorp's Citibank are named along with others like Common Market Forwarders, Trans International Forwarders, and First Wisconsin National Bank. The move follows Ford's promise to disclose names and notes some firms violated antiboycott rules more than once during the 11 days since the announcement. Arab officials in Baghdad asserted oil and raw materials will be denied to any American firm that refuses to provide requested information.
