This shift in the positions OF the

face to face.
I'VE are acquiring additional gold

we are establishing or endeavoring

of goods from the nations in our

I'm order to maintain reason

10 give employment to our people

an equal exchange OF goods makes
no provision, for the payment of the
loans which we have already made.
/ an so far as our imports are
less than our exports some method
I0f establishing balance must be
Iset up, for we cannot long continue
the present practice OF making adj

ithis deficit current lOaning is nm
wise both from a national and from

are discussing, without going for

But neither current loaning nor

land this fact leads MS to the newt

securities of the nations with whom

their people and to the conclusion
that these investments must con-

at is therefore most desirable
that we so conduct ourselves that
we may greatly modify this feel
