...Senate last week by a platoon of Cabinet members sent up the Hill by President Johnson. Agriculture Secretary Orville Freeman pointed out that one acre of every four of U.S. farmland grows food for export, and exports provide work for one out of every eight U.S. farmers. Interior Secretary Stewart Udall argued that oil import quotas should be less rigid in order to give the Government flexibility in maintaining the national security. Rusk cited some U.S. annual exports-$369 million worth of computers, $188 million worth of farm tractors (or 20% of total output), $371 million worth of fruits...
