| President Conable addressed world trade leaders at the Ministerial Meeting of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) in Punta de Este, Uruguay. "Economic growth in all countries can only be achieved in the context of a liberal trade environment," said Mr. Conable. "A rationalization of the world's agricultural trade is necessary...Failure to deal with this subject in your negotiations, for whatever historical reason, will continue conditions which damage trade relations generally and which impede the development process."
