Abstract
- All Americans interested in national affairs have had to accept the official custom of identifying government organizations by their initials. It is important to know the meaning of the mysterious initials G.A.T.T., for during the next months they will be the center of sharp Congressional controversy. General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade(G.A.T.T.) which thirty-odd nations, including the United States, entered into at Geneva in 1947 after months of negotiation. The only new questions raised by the G. A. T. T. have to do with certain general trading principles and with proposals for setting up a formal organization to administer them.
