Kennedy Hails Passage
Of Foreign Trade Bill
WASHINGTON ;P> President
Kennedy has hailed Senate passage'
of the foreign trade bill which gives |
him revolutionary powers to slash
or eliminate tariffs.
By a 78-8 vote Wednesday, the
Senate approved the measure that
would open the way to an economic
partnership with the booming Eu
ropean Common Market.
The House passed a similar ver
sion earlier. House and Senate j
conferee:- must reconcile the dif
ferences and work out a final i
version of the legislation.
This is not expected to be a clif- |
ficult task since both versions
contain the major powers the Pres- !
ident requested.
The Senate vote on the meas
ure — which heads Kennedy's leg
islative priority list -- gave the
administration its biggest victory
so far in Congress.
Kennedy, described by an aid
as elated, congratulated the Senate
foi its " ignificant action."
"It is the strongest trade- bill j
since the original lceisL-.tion was I
Mark* t and oilier nations through
