Such a standard would do much to remedy the existing disparities between the practices of the various companies and might accomplish a great deal in meeting the grievances, both real and imagined, which foreign governments have against private companieso The minimum standards might inter alia define company attitudes towards problems of taxation, wages, social benefits to workers, training of local nationals for positions of managerial responsibility, and non- interference in the internal political affairs of the country 33. We should continue to encourage United States labor to develop theORIT as a powerful anti-communist federation capable of taking the initiative away from communist and Peronista inter-American labor federations. While considerable progress toward this goal has been made in recent years, mucha remains to be achieved. B. Economic IMMODICATION DECLASSIFIED E.
