Bankers eye Soviet and Arab trade to lift US economy
American banks and businessmen push for credits to the Soviet Union and expanded trade with Arab nations. A BoA plan seeks 500 million in short term Soviet credits to buy non military goods, Reuters reports. Officials say such deals would not violate U.S. law and could curb unemployment while opponents cite constitutional concerns over boycott and rights. Ian MacGregor urged using foreign capital to create jobs in the United States.
