Industries and Nations

Says L. w Wallace secretary of the American
Engineering Council:
'The United States should specialize those
things produce best because of production
leaving Europe those things it produce best be-
cause of cheaper labor"
Here is typical engineering point of view in the
realm of economics The speaker would apply the
same principle doubt to advantages possessed by
this that nation by virtue of its location climate,
soil and other characteristics.
1t is only common sense to say that in a logical
arrangement of the worlds industry, every country
would produce what it produce most easily and
cheapy, and then exchange its special commodities
with those produced easily and cheaply by other
tions. This would be- roughly, the principle we
follow in the various states of this Union extended to
the world in general.
But unfortunately the world is far from logical.
National politics. national prejudice, national rivalry
and national fear always interfering with the
tural economic development of the human race as
whole.
Nearly every country thinks it has to produce
what other countries producing The nations fight
each other economically thinking thus to get ahead of
each other and make themselves economically inde-
pendent" So of the strong and fortunate ones
do gain little, and the world whole loses great
deal. 1t will continue until military warfare has
ended and international fear has passed from mems
hearts-which will be long time.
