Britain eases trade curbs as U S exports face price hurdles
In New York, the AP reports Britain is freeing more American goods from import curbs and raising quotas on autos, while American prices keep U S exporters under pressure. U S exports to Britain last year totaled about one billion dollars in imports from the U S while Britain bought 821 million dollars from the United States. The relaxation may not swiftly boost U S shipments due to persistent tariffs, competition from cheaper foreign and American-owned plants, and ongoing U S import curbs on zinc lead and oil, wool tariffs, and bid rejections for large electrical equipment.
