Nixon Wins Trade Powers With Limits and Aid Pacts
The House Ways and Means Committee voted to grant President Nixon expanded authority to negotiate world trade pacts within congressional percentage limits. The measure allows tariff and non tariff barrier deals with vetoes by either chamber, plus emergency actions for inflation with approval required later. It bars most favored nation status for Communist countries until emigration policies relax, aimed at the Soviet Union. The bill also offers $170 weekly wage support for up to 28 weeks to workers displaced by imports, plus aid for injured industries, though AFL CIO calls it insufficient to stop job losses.
