Simon vows open markets keep inflation at bay
Treasury Secretary William E. Simon told IMF and World Bank governors in Washington that the United States will not tighten controls or curb grain and other exports to fight inflation. He urged open markets and free access to capital, noting no subsidies or obstructions to outflow, and called for end-of-year Congressional steps toward freer world trade. Ford reinforced the push for international cooperation in trade and policy while Simon warned against inflationary restraint pushing the world into recession. The discussion highlighted oil import costs and capital flows, with Simon noting a modest current account deficit and oil bills higher than the prior year. He said the breakfast session would not yield immediate solutions but could advance progress.
