Rusk Defends Travel Restrictions in TV News Conference
Secretary Dean Rusk defended proposed curbs on foreign travel to help correct the U S balance of payments deficit. He cited rising American tourism abroad and noted a $2 billion gap after Americans spent $4 billion overseas in 1967 while foreign visitors spent about $2 billion in the United States.
