Ban on Exports lo
Poland Are Eased
Washington (U.R) The
United States Saturday eased its
strict ban on exports to Com
munist Poland in recognition of
its partial break with Moscow.
Secretary of Commerce Sin
clair Weeks announced the gov
ernment will permit exporters to
sell surplus U. S. farm products
to Poland for U. S. dollars at
world market prices.
This was the first concrete ac
tion the United States has taken
to cooperate with Poland since
it broke from Moscow's domin
ation and won some measure of
independence.
Weeks indicated that similar
action may be taken in the fu
ture for other Communist bloc
nations if they try to move out
from under the Kremlin's yoke.
The action was considered part
of a developing U. S. policy to
encourage independence in Sov
iet satellites.
