Not Much Business Sense in This
In one of his speeches, Mr.. Wilson
himself states that the productive
agencies of the United States could sup
ply all its home needs in six months.
If we could do that unaided; if our fac
tories supplying the entire home de-
mand would be idle half the year, how
much OF the time will they be running
when, instead of supplying the entire
home demand, they are to divide it
with half dozen other nations, each
on the basis of the lowest paid labor in
the world. It is estimated that with
the largest share of foreign trade OF all
the nations, trade that it has taken
her centuries to build up, trade fos-
tered and contributed to by her colo
NAL dependencies in every quarter OF
the globe, the total exports Of Great
Britain amount to about 80 ,0O0, 600, 600 q
year. Our own run from q quarter to
half that amount now; but suppose this
tearing down the barriers could make
us at once the equal of Great Britain in
our export trade. Grant that impossi-
BILE addition to our foreign business.
Now see what we would have to give
for it.
There are no statistics at hand by
which we could measure the inestima-
BILE value to the American manufacturer
and the American workingman of the
home market.
OF the great majority of commercial
transactions that take place between
individuals and corporal ons over our
vast area, there exists no record. For.
eign trade is measured at the ports of
entry and exit. Domestic trade is free
and uncalculated. The nearest approx
innate measure of this vast business ia

countrv per annum. II will he seen at

amount to from 10000, OOO, 600 to $780,
