fieient proof that the German manufae-
turers expect to make and maintain in the
United States large markets for their
products.
The Two Questions
Some of those who are identified with
the United States Steel corporation, at
least IN the manufacturing department.
now say that whether or not Germany
makes strenuous efforts to capture the
American markets for iron and steel prod
uets depends upon the industrial situa-
ton in Germany to a considerable extent
The two questions involved, therefore. in
the study of the situation, so far as il
relates to the German manufacturers are
these: First. is there to be a great re-
Yfval of industrial activity In GERMANY
especially in iron and steel products; and
second, is there to be Industrial reaction
in Germany and a depression in the iron
and steel manufacturing industry conse-
quent upon monetary or other conditions
in Europe?
II the German iron and steel manufae-
turers find the demand for their products
10 be very great and If it is expedient
Tor them to drive their mills to their
capacities in order to meet these demands
then they will not be disposed to seek the
american markets and to try to capture
them through cutting of prices.
On the other hand. should there be de-
preston in Germany, then the German
manufacturers will be strongly disposed
to seek the American markets and willing
to offer such quotations of prices as will
surely, in their opinion, command some
portions of these markets
