...FOREIGN TRADE. Kennedy made his strongest appeal for presidential power to cut tariffs-by as much as 50% to meet the challenge of the European Common Market and the threat of Commu nist economic expansion. "Our decision," he said, "could well affect the unity of the West, the course of the cold war and the growth of our nation for a generation to come. The United States did not rise to greatness by waiting for others to lead. This nation is the world's fore most manufacturer, farmer, banker, consumer and exporter.

They were South Korea's own eager, patriotic youngsters...

Though he did not say so publicly, he was displeased by other developments. He had banned party politics; yet the Baath (socialist) party, the Commu nists and others went on politicking. Syrian Vice President Akram Hourani was acting more like a Prime Minister in Damascus than an executor of decisions taken in Cairo.
