Secretary of Commerce Weeks and Secretary of the Treasury Humphrey addressed a meeting of tne senate canting uomminee ana a 100-man advisory group study ing means of financing the expan sion of world trade. They indicated that bank loans and private investments more and more must replace U.S. grants in promoting trade and providing ec onomic help to foreign countries. Humphrey said that "the govern ment must question both its right and its financial ability to continue to use taxpayers money to finance investments abroad on a large scale in the. development of com petitive enterprise. And he added that "more atten tion must be paid abroad to mak ing investment attractive to foreign capitals."

That went to the core of the problem which the Senate commit tee is studying. The group was di rected by Congress last June to study activities of the two banks "and their relationship to expan sion of international trade."
