Trade policy delayed as 1955 Congress remains split
Senate Finance Committee leaders Millikin and George say rejection of a liberalized reciprocal trade plan shifts the foreign trade issue to the 1955 session. Yesterday the Senate defeated a three year extension of the Reciprocal Trade Act with tariff cutting powers and passed a one year extension. Democrats allied with Republicans on the key vote, but the test did not resolve Randall Commission tariff reduction recommendations. President Eisenhower had urged broader liberalization based on the commission’s findings. Continued on page twenty.
