U.S. Farmer, Manufacturer
Hit by Pound Devaluation
By RAY CROMLEY
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NBA)
Devaluation of the British pound is just one more in a
growing list of hurdles facing U.S. exports.
Take a few examples of many problems being argued
about here:
When American producers ship feed grains to Western
Europe, the levy the European Economic Community collects
is used for subsidies to undercut American ham sales in the
United States and American poultry sales in Switzerland and
Greece.
Australia now uses a two-price system to undersell U.S.
canned cling peaches in West Germany.
Canada has started a subsidy program for her wheat
growers that will enable Ottawa to cut into American sales
abroad.
Agriculture Department men admit ruefully that in country
after country “new impediments to trade” are being “initi
ated.”
These growing foreign trade restrictions cut into the Income
of the American farmer and manufacturer and intensify the
U.S. balance of payments problem.
Devaluation of the British pound was, in effect, a subsidy
to British exporters. Devaluation will make it more difficult
for U.S. products to compete in Britain and with some British
exports in a variety of countries. If a considerable number
of major U.S. competitors and major U.S. customers follow
the British example and devaluate their currencies it could
hurt here considerably.
The American competitive position In markets abroad will
be hurt further as farm wages and industrial costs go up.
Agriculture Department men estimate “farmworkers as a
group may receive a 10 per cent over-all increase in wages
and earning for the first year as a result of the new minimum
wage for agriculture" which went into effect in February,
1967. Industrial wages are expected to rise 5 per cent in 1968.
The export problem, in part, is the result of a long series
of mistakes extending back over two decades. American
negotiators at the major trade talks during those 20 years
have been too timid to insist that foreign countries make real
reductions in their trade barriers.
The United States, during that period, has had some real
tariff cuts to offer other countries. If the negotiators had
insisted on the elimination of indirect barriers the U.S. export
outlook would look much better than it does today.
Government officials now admit that the highly touted
“Kennedy Round" of trade negotiations didn’t get at the
hocus-pocus manipulative type of restrictive barriers men
tioned above, which historically have caused more trouble
for exporters than high tariffs.

■xamn A MESSAGE FROM
■PrM GRIFFIN LODGE NO. 1503
LOYfIL ORDER 0F MOOSE
H The officers and members of Griffin
; 1 Moose Lodge proudly announce the
t 1 formation of a group of candidates
to be enrolled in testimonial tribute
the HONORABLE
HkXH JOHN J. FLYNT, JR.
Congressman for the Sixth District
JOHN J. FLYNT, JR. o f Georgia
and
A Lifetime Member Os Our Lodge
Any Lodge, City, State or Nation that has a good practical purpose reason for
its existence, who does not thrive to grow bigger and better and to serve more
and more people, will in due course shrink to ruin. We of Griffin Moose Lodge
constantly adhere to this fact.
From time to time we make special efforts to augment our membership to
overcome loss of members due to death, moving from our city and other
normal causes.
During this special effort period our members will be extending courteous
invitations to eligible citizens of good moral character to membership in our
great Order of Fraternal Love for our fellow man.
We have elected to pay tribute to Congressman Flynt because the conduct of
his personal and public life has so much in common with the operating prin
ciples of our fraternity.
Jack Flynt has a deep feeling of concern for the welfare of children who have
lost one or both parents, so does the Moose. We have built, own and operate
Mooseheart in Illinois. A complete city designed for the care of such children.
Jack Flynt has an equal concern for the dependent aged people of our nation,
so does the Moose. We have built, own and operate another community at
Orange Park, Florida, known the world over as Moosehaven, a city of content
ment and opportunity for senior citizens.
Jack Flynt is a strong believer that perpetuation in civic afairs makes for a
better community. We of the Moose share with him in that conviction. We
stand constantly ready to take the lead or assist others in any civic affairs
movement designed to make our city, county, state or nation a better place
to reside and rear our families.
Good is the reward from each of these things. Because his heart speaks out
such endeavors and his mind puts them into practice is the basic reason why
Congressman Flynt is held in such high esteem by persons of both political
parties and all others who know him.
Griffin and Georgia is a fine place to reside because Jack Flynt lives here and
helped to make it so.
