State department trade advocates call plan costly and rude to challenge Japan, Czechoslovakia, and other rivals. Manufacturers foresee a flood of foreign goods under new wages and hours laws.

Probes Open Into Daytona Plane Crash Fatalities
Three investigations began to determine responsibility for a high tension power line at Sholtz airport that caused an Eastern Airlines crash killing four and injuring five. Agencies from the Department of Commerce and Florida Power Light plus Easter Rifle Lines sent officials to Daytona Beach for inquiries and hearings. A Kantern Air Lines vice president led the carrier's probe while a federal inquiry board was named to conduct hearings at suitable places and times. Unofficial reports said the line went up Monday night as an emergency fix after a transformer burned, supplying power to a beacon west of the airport. County records show Clyde Byrd, power company local manager, was authorized August 5 to string the wire along the Daytona Beach Deland highway.
