says that the nation which makes the
cheapest steel has the other nations
at its feet as far as manufacturing
in most of it's branches is concerned
we ought to have no miSgivings about
the future. Nevertheless, as regards
a thousand and one miscellaneous pro-
ducts in which the American manu-
facturer eXcels he is making com
paratively little impression on the
foreign market, because of his ineXperi-
ence as an exporter. He packs his
goods Carelessly; declines to give
credit; fails to study the needs and
tastes of the foreign customer (Which
the English and Germans never fail
to do); mails 'dreams-of-art' catalogues
to the other side of the world, instead
of sending a live salesman to repre-
sent him and exhibit samples of his
goods; omits to arrange for banking
facilities like those his rivals estab-
lished long ago: ships in other than
American bottoms. and therefore pays
eXtortiOnate rates: and allows himself
to be tricked, cheated and imposed up
on in every foreign market. Some of
these emba easements under present
conditions ne cannot obviate, but others
are due to a self-sufficiency which was
cultivated in a home market that never
failed him until he produced more than
the American people could consume.
Whenever he has had valuable ar
ticle to sell and has established agen-
cies for the sale of il in other coun-
tries, as he should do in the case of
