PREAMBLE

The

Governments

of

the United

States

of

America

and

Ireland:

Recognizing

that

the

restoration

or

maintenance

in

European

countries

of

principles

of

individual

liberty,

free

institutions,

and

genuine

independence

rests

largely

upon

the

establishment

of

sound

economic conditions,

stable

international

economic relationships,

and

the

achievement

by

the

countries

of

Europe

of

a

healthy

economy

independent

of

extraordinary

outside

assistance;

Recognizing

that

a

strong

and

prosperous

European

economy

is

essential

for

the

attainment

of

the

purposes

of

the

United

Nations;

Considering

that

the

achievement

of

such

conditions

calls

for

a

European

recovery

plan

of

self-help

and

mutual

cooperation,

open

to

all

nations

which

cooperate in

such

a

plan,

based

upon

a

strong

production

effort,

the

expansion

of

foreign

trade,

the

creation

or

maintenance

of

internal

financial

stability

and

the

development

of

economic

cooperation,

including

all

possible

steps

to

establish

and

maintain

valid

rates

of

exchange

and

to

reduce

trade

barriers;

Considering

that

in

furtherance

of

these

principles

the

Government

of

Ireland

has

joined

with

other

like-minded

nations in

Convention

for

European

Economic

Cooperation

signed

at

Paris

on

April

16,

1948,

2

a

joint

recovery

program,

and

that

the

Govern

ment

of

Ireland

is

a

member
