Alba, Italy, Boy
Scout Writes to
Medford Troop 7
Boy Scout Troop 7 in Med
ford has received a letter
from Boy Scout Troop 1 in
Alba, Italy.
Written by Michele Gia-
cosa, known as Mike, the let
ter is in response to letters
sent from the local troop as
another step in furthering the
Sister City program. Scouts
also help achieve the World
Brotherhood Merit badge
through such communications.
The letter, addressed to
Richard Moyer, was written
in Italian and was translated
by Mrs. Russell Herbert, ac
cording to Robert Baccus,
principal of Wilson school,
Medford, and chairman of the
city's sister city program.
Special School
Mike reports that he attends
a school sepcializing in agri
culture in Medford s sister
city, Alba, Italy. He was born
In Italy and joined the scouts
when he was 12 years old.
He is now a first class scout
with five specialties - guide,
altar boy, cook, farmer,
cyclist.
The letter reads in part: "I
have understood from your
letter, that you are a stamp
collector, and since my scout
master is a stamp lover, he
sends you three series, hoping
that you will like them and
will send some stamps In ex
change."
Mike expresses the "hope
this letter will be the starting
of a continuous and lasting
correspondence which will be
profitable for both of us."
He also comments that "if
it is easier for Richard to
read French" he will corre
spond in French.

Duncan Pleased With Steps to Get Pears in Europe
Washington, D. C- Con
gressman Robert B. Duncan
(D-Ore.) said last week he is
pleased the United States is
prepared to take steps under
the General Agreement on
Tariffs and Trade (GATT) to
encourage France to admit
fresh pears and other fruit
products of the United States.
"Restrictions Imposed by
France have seriously hamp
ered the export to that coun
try of fruit from Oregon's
Fourth District, Duncan said,
The United States decided
some months ago to make use
of its "redress action" through
the GATT by withdrawing
certain concessions which had
been granted to . France.
France's restrictions on im
ports of fruit is in marked con
trast to other countries. Spe
cifically prohibited are canned
peaches, cocktail trim, pine
apple, pears, apples, grape
fruit sections, citrus juices
and fresh grapes, he said.
Restrictions on Pears
However, Duncan is more
Immediately concerned with
the restri ction placed by
France on , Imports of fresh
pears, an Important Fourth
District product. France has
limited pear imports by ir
regular and arbitrary con
trols.
In contrast to Franco, the
imports of fresh pears are
liberalized by The Nether-
.Mklliej

lands, Ireland and Italy, all
of which have no import con
trols. The United Kingdom
has an annual import quota
for pears, applicable to all
countries e x c e pt Common
wealth countries outside the
dollar area.
Most other European coun
tries control imports by set
ting "opening dates" which
usually coincide with the end
of the marketing of their do
mestic supplies. Mai.y have
grading standards different
from ours which effectively
exclude American imports,
Duncan noted.
Duncan pointed out that
European import restrictions
on fresh pears were, for many
years, justified by these coun
tries because of a shortage of
foreign exchange. In most in
stances this reason is no long
er valid.
The United Stales, through
the procedures of GATT, must
and is seeking to have unjusti
fiable trade restrictions removed.
Duncan said, "I believe
greater prosperity lies in the
area of expansion and freer
trade than in the direction of
restrictions. Specific excep
tions will, doubtless, from
time to time occur. In such
cases, restrictions must be
Imposed by the U.S. to avert
an immediate calamity. They
should, however, be the ex
ception rather than the rule.
"Further, our trade policies
in regard to special items must
be considered in the context I
of our entire trade problem.
We cannot impose restrictions
against foreign products on
the one hand and insist that
they be loosened abroad on
the other hand."
