Backs Foreign Trade.
Senator Harding said:
desire to declare to you 9nd
through you TO the American peo-
pie that | stand for the full develop
ment of our foreign trade. We look
back now upon several years Of our
national history, when the eXpan-
sion of our foreign trade just as the
prosperity Of our American bus ness.

Expansion of Foreign Trade.
The expansion of American foreign
trade depends in great part upon the
Intelligence and Cooperation of yau
the American people. It's prosperity
is your prosperity; its stagnation is
your stagnation You will require as
VIII require. that our foreign trade
snail De honorably conducted but you
will know. as I know, that we must
TAKE our place efficiently and FULLY
IN the great exchanges of the world
We would be old-fashioned indeed
II We continue to believe that foreign
trade is created merely by producing
something which might be sold
abroad. The modern world with its
modern business and its greater COM
petition has gone far beyond that
simple notion. Once upon a time a
clipper ship could load unordered
goods in New England port and sell
them out of the hold on the coast of
the China sea. When some of our
American people have awakened 10
the fact that foreign trade is not
mere peddling of goods. when al of
US take more interest in learning
about the world and less interest il,
teaching the world there will b.. a
better appreciation of what IL means
10 every man. woman and child in
america TO build M our foreign tradt.
ana better appreciation of how il
must be done
