Europe was still determined to strengthen NATO and the free world's defenses. But in the past the U.S. has "offered" to defend Europe.

With a whopping trade debt of $180 million piled up as of last week, Colombia is in no position to buy more farm machinery abroad without cutting down on imports of consumer goods and industrial equipment. The same hard choice confronts other Latin American governments. From the standpoint of economic growth, what is the best buy? Tractors, TV sets, or machinery for a new electrical-equipment plant?
