<Geoflo397@aol.com> To: HQ.SAT4(KHOWERTON) Date: 8/11/97 3:06am Subject: Made in USA Policy Comment August 9, 1997 Federal Trade Commission Dir Sir or Madam, To qualify under the term "Made in the USA", a product should be totally fabricated and assembled within the fifty states of America. This would then be a totally truthful statement; one that the business and consumer population may rely on. Do we deserve anything less? For products that consist of parts made in other countries, or assembled outside the US, etc., label accordingly. I perceive no real hardship in doing so and being totally truthful is the best policy after all, isn't it? Sincerely Yours, George E. Foster |
