Mine Aid Legislation Tied To Europe Bill
The Senate Banking Committee approved a bill to guarantee European investments against confiscation and convert receipts into U S currency. Senator O Mahoney argues it could bolster a domestic mine aid program aiding exploration and development of base metal mines, especially in the West, with over 2000 mines eligible. Senator Millikin opposes foreign subsidies and doubts House action this session. The administration objects to profit subsidies, while the bill would offer financial aid without production subsidies, proposing a government role in idle properties and market creation for subsidized mines. The measure sits on the Senate calendar awaiting favorable timing.
