Export Now
Considered
Serious Problem
“The American Midwest has
much to gain from agricultural
policies that develop and expand
markets at home and abroad and
from national policies that con

culture Clifford M Hardin tfljld

meeting in Chicago recently. I
“Illinois led the Nation in fatjm
exports in 1967-68, and five other
Mid-western States (lowa, Kan
sas, Minnesota, Indiana, and Ne
braska) ranked among the top
ten exporters of farm products.
Secretary Hardin said "Thus the
heartland of America has a ma
jor stake in the renewed expan

west has much to lose if trade
barriers are permetted to gam

Europe, the Secretary said he re

confronting U S farmers

many world markets,” Secretary
Haidm said “It takes the form
of artificial barriers, such as un
reasonably high tauffs, import
levies and quotas that prevent
