German system is now partially In
effect not only In Germany but In ssv-
eral other countries. In France, for
example all the large users Of coal
have been brought together by the
Government, and do their buying OF
coal as n unit.
Tho advantage Of common pur-
chasing agent. acting for an entire
country, over individual sellers OF coal
in other countries Is obvious. The only
way to meet 1t Is for all the sellers
Of coal in the nations that deal with
Franco to unite and act through a
common selling agent.
The case Of France and coal Is
merely an example. France. Great
Britain, Italy Germany. and several
other nations are doing the same thing
in other lines of industry. Obviously
80 long as In other nations entire in
dustrics act az units, the Unitei States
can only meet the situation by or
ganizing our corresponding industries
into similar units.
Mr.. flowers reference to this situ-
alton was only hint. but It will be
logical 20 expect that the necessities
Of tn" case viii commend some such
organization Of industry to US, and
that Mr.. Hoover, conceiving Of his
office rs being the guardian and friend
Of American commerce. will lead il.
Past Secretaries of Commerce have
had no such world grasp OF industry
as Hoover has. and have not come 10
such close grips with 1t as Hoovers

ness mon will find in Hoover a man
who knows world trade as they can
never know il. and as it is known hy
