"It is time now to write a new chapter in the evolution of the Atlantic Community," Ken- nedy said in a 5,000-word trade message requesting power to eliminate U.S. tariffs on a broad range of industrial goods and to reduce other rates by half during a period of five years or more. Reductions would be recipro- cal. For every benefit the U.S. provided, it would expect a benefit in return from overseas markets. Negotiations would be di- rected mainly at the Common Market but bargains made would be extended to all the free world. However, where big traders, such as Canada, ob- tained major benefits, the U.S. would expect "'compensating concessions" in return, Ken- nedy said. "Nuisance" -tariffs --- tive per. cent or less -- would be with- drawn. This would be of par- ticular help to Canadian ex- porters of aluminum, and nickel. But officials said the U.S. would reserve the right to re- fuse to negotiate on such highly- sensitive products as oil, lead, zine and certain agricultural products strongly protected by import quotas and other curbs They said this reservation would be used sparingly.

In negotiations with the Com- mon Market -- which Kennedy expects Britain will enter--the U.S. would seek complete elim- ination of duties on those cate- gories of goods in which the U.S. and the Common Market combined supply at least 80 per cent of world trade. Officials said these would include auto- mobiles, trucks, aircraft, heavy industrial machinery, electrical -- and some consumer 8 s. U.S. exports of these goods to the Common Market and Brit- ain currently average about $2,- 000,000,000 a year. Total U.S exports are about $20,000,000,000 annually.
