Outstanding men have been appointed to study such national and international problems as agriculture and foreign trade and then suggest what to do for the best interest of the country. But Eisenhower may be in as much of a dilemma after one of these groups finishes Wits task as before, because of a couple questions: 1. Can any' man who considered a problem for years and probably formed pretty positive opinions now look at it with an open mind just because the President asked him to?

Such a difference appears in the 17 man commission on foreign economic policy. Its main job is studying the Reciprocal Trade Act, which means telling Eisenhower and Congress whether tariffs on foreign goods coming here to compete with American products should be higher or. lower. The chairman of this tariff commission-Clarence B. Randall chairman of the board of the Inland Steel Co.

"Freedom's published 27, Randall said America's traditionally. high tariff policy. "must yield to the imperative new necessity for broadened world trade." The word "bias" was flung at him aunost instantly by a committee representing a number of industries, trade associations and farm and labor groups which want higher tariffs because, they: say, they're being.
