One Of till ;loWing problems We
face in litis country is the balance
of payments deficit. !.asl week.
the House passed a bill to extend
the life of the Exftort Import bank
—one of ihe major elements we
have against this menace.
The bank has. since 1935. worked
to promote the sale of American
made products abroad. They do
lies by supplementing the finnanc-
mir and credit available to foreign
buyi i s when they "buy America.
Frequently, Ihe question of whe
titer a buyer will purchase, say.
from the C S. or Japan, depends
on what kind ol credit lie can kci
to fiiuutn the deal. The bank ex
ists to make sure that if the U. S.
has the item for sale, the credit
and financing will also be then

I In this n-spect I believe that the
I epeinlions of the bank may lie
more desirable than many forms
I of direct foreign assistance. Wi-
ne simply lending our good name
where credit is need ill.
Initially, there is no capital out-
, lay 011 the part of this country to
sustain Ihe operation of the bank
and therefore less of a chance that
v\e will fall into a situation where
| there is .111 unfavorable balance
1 of payments.
Significantly, the bank not only

I Several questions have arisen
over the p.ist lew years with re-

I believe the bill passed by Ihe
llotisi e||, ( 1 ively resolves these
