NAFTA boosts jobs and wages across North America
Dr. Richard Lesher argues NAFTA will eliminate trade barriers between the U S and Mexico and create at least 200 000 more jobs by 1995. He notes productivity gaps and wage trends, asserting labor costs are a small share of manufacturing and that rising Mexican wages will boost U S exports. An editorial note cites Lesher as U S Chamber of Commerce president and a vote was expected that day.
