There is one advantage our neglect

that we can now start fresh and Guido
anything ever done by any nation in
the same line. The commerce Of South
America and the Orient is ours for
the taking. and we must take them, or
we are likely TO experience a period
of depression following the close of
the war in Europe.
II believe AN adequate merchant
marine. headed by a commission COM

three experienced business men, could
make the United states the dominant
industrial and commercial power of
the world. Also it would disprove that

my success with my people. Into my

in this busy world never find themselves

tragedy and dire waste Of valuable

But to those who have established
