I just heard on the radio that George W. Bush has selected Don Evans to be his Commerce Secretary, and that Mr. Evans' Senate confirmation is going smoothly. The report's description of Mr. Evans sounds like it may be good for us. It said that he is a personal friend of Mr. Bush and an oil man who strongly supports expanding free trade. To that end, he might be friendly toward the idea of US metrication to make our products more desirable to international customers. Jason
