the United States enjoys a larger pro

Until 1918 the lead of the United
States in the foreign trade of Latin
America was due to its share of Lat.
in American exports, but the United

In 1913, for the first time, the United

standing the efforts put forward by
the British manufacturers in 1914,
and particularly since the beginning
Of the war, to maintain their position
in the Latin American import trade
and to capture a large share of the

with reasonable confidence that the

the United States in 1913 will not be
