Policy continued from Page 1 larger secret barriers to Trade the quantitative quotas the Cus Toms Law interpretations and the rest can Only be ordered by con Gress. The proposed world Trade charter and the International organization to enforce it must be through Congress also. The world must understand now that the Fate of the project of world Trade Ana world Prosperity depends not on he democratic american govern ment but on the Republican legis lature. No great Hopes judged by its record the re publican party does not offer Reat Hopes to the plan now mov no toward decision. The Republican party s tariffs of the Nineteen twenties launched economic War. Are throughout the world. The republicans in the recent demo cratic Congress voted generally against the British loan against he Trade treaty Powers of the president against the Bretton currency and lending plans which Are. All essential parts of he world Trade programme. To that record another Factor must be added in calculating the Utu a. The Republican party is deeply disturbed by the Drift of Europe and especially of Britain away from free Enterprise and to Ward something As yet Uncertain which is usually dismissed under he omnibus name of socialism the United states is beginning to feel that with Canada it is be coming the last stand of free Enterprise. The protectionists Congress will use this fear As a Handy Pon. They will Are say no it is useless to attempt to Trade with socialist countries which by the very a ure of their own system canno Rade fairly without discrimination. They will preach economic isolationism. As a new and unavoidable evil when it is Only the old and fatal doctrine dressed up in the fashions of 1947. The first task of the democratic government and of the Low Tarif. Republicans is to persuade the Congress of the obvious fact thai the american system is now bound up with world Trade More completely than Ever because the Home Market canno t absorb the vast new and specialized of american Industry. The second task is to persuade foreign coun tries and especially Britain to Al Low maximum and non discriminatory Trade even if that violate orthodox socialism. Before 1948 whether the Republican Cong Ress can be persuaded no one can know in Advance. But since the Issue will reach Congress next autumn after the summer s Tarif bargaining the answer of con Gress should be known before Thi year is out. It May not be a Black or White answer. The project o restoring Trade May not succeed All. At once but at worst there is Good ground to expect a Partia Success a reduction of Trade barriers a decreasing use of Trade discrimination. As for Britain it is going along with the american programme and will go along to the end with Little respect to pure ideology provided the american Market is really opened to its goods. But if the whole project fails Britain will be ready next Day to Retreat into the storm cellar of a Sterling Trade bloc in Europe and elsewhere and then wrenched Between the Pound Anc the Dollar. There will be wrangling Anc Tough bargaining at this year Tariff conferences. There will be moments doubtless of despair but in the end the United state will have to face the stubborn am Sovereign fact that if its free enter prise system is to survive Ani spread and prove its superiority to other systems in this work it must operate in an open Worl economic Community. It can Rio operate Long in a closed world o economic warfare. And Only Thi United states by its economic Power its Money its in parallel production its unequalled appetite for goods can open the world o Trade and forestall another economic War. But to do that it must make its own system work at Home How the United state is a broaching this immediate problem will be discussed in the next re port from Washington. J.
