she was cured of Internal cancer the society says Becky really doesn't remember much about it because her illness was diagnosed when she was 11 months old and she was declared cured of neuroblastoma a tumor that affected her spine by the time she was five The little girl who symbolizes thousands cured of cancer spoke at the formal ceremonies at the White House in a voice so low she could hardly be heard by spectators But when it was all over she forgot her nervousness and said "I liked it" She and the President who has a little daughter of his own got along fine Kennedy took her into a room adjoining his office after the ceremonies and rummaged through a desk to find her a gold bracelet with a charm depicting a PT boat in a blue ocean He also gave Becky a pen for herself and one each for

right time and given the right conditions" to renew negotiations for British membership in the European Common Market He added howeevr there seems to be no immediate prospect of a new breakthrough and 'therefore "I stress the urgency of other ineastues which are open to uS" Wilson who may be Britain's next prime minister is here for private talks with ranking officials of the United States government He spoke publicly Monday at the National Press Club covering all sorts of Angio-American a world issues but giving particular emphasis to economics Wilson rates tariff negotiations and the development of better international money machinery as the most urgent economic issues of the moment and the negotiation of international commodity agreements a close third In a list of "constructive alternatives" to British membership In the European bloc he first listed "urgent action to make the Kennedy round (of tariff negotiations) effective" The Kennedy round expected to begin in early 1984 Is the International round of tariff and trade talks at which the US will seek to use the bargaining authority of President Kennedy's liberal trade program enacted last year On the international money point he said: "What is needed is a medium for the creation of International credit through the established machinery of the International monetary a system that will guarantee ample availability of credit to finance expanding trade He did not amplify his plan In his attitude on trade and money Wilson appeared to agree with the basic position of Britain's Incumbent conservative government though they may differ substantially on detail Jibes With Views Wilson struck one very firm note on money policy with which the United States agrees in full "In passing may I say with all the emphasis I can command" he said "that the answer (to the money problem) does not lie in de valuation whether of the dollar or sterling or both That would be a lunatic and self-destroying opera tion The same applies to loose talk about floating (exchange) rates" Wilson criticized his govertnnent for Its failure in negotiating for British membership in the Common Market Though he did not directly advocate British membership in the market he discussed what Was wrong with the membership negotiations and what alternative poll-cleft would or might be better If there were to be new negotiations he said a labor government would not want "another 18 months with Britain sitting in the ante-chamber while the six meet and wrangle about our fate" Also he said his party was not prepared to agree to all the concessions that Britain's negotiators made in the negotiations that failed particularly the concessions Made tO the bloc's agricultural policy As the alternative to Joining Europe he said that the Labor party has had a policy all along "based on the concept of an wider than community" This rather than "a narrow European conception" provides the key to the future he said hi 8 first make tariff
