than 81 100000 for the announcement
Of agricultural production.
In April of this year, the Secretary

$40 1000, 900 Of his unexpended funds

Now for the grimmest jest of all,
During the three years that the per-

wondering how to get rid of hi. sur-
pluses, the Secretary Of State was
making trade agreements with foreign
countries, opening wide the gates to
imported foodstuf1s and raw materials.

BY FRANCIS P. GARVAN.

NEW YORK, June 18-When
subservient Congress passed and when
It recently renewed the reciprocal
trade agreement act, it conferred on
the Secretary of State life-and-
death control over American industry.
This Is no mere metaphor. If the
disclosures to be made here are un-
believable, challenge the State De-
partment to refute them It's control
Of industry is both indirect and direct.
Let us dispose of the lesser evil first
and in so doing we will show the COM
plete fallacy of the Hull theory Of
international trade.
Stripped of excess verbiage and
lofty sentiments. the theory is really
quite simple. BY simple" I mean
both "uncomplicated" and downright
silly.
Perpetual Motion.
The idea is: In order to sell more
Of our commodities abroad-par-
ticularly agricultural products and
specifically cotton-We must reduce
our tariff on imports up to so per
can get the money to buy our sur
pluses. That is. the more we buy, the
more we sell, and the more we sell,
the more we buy. The music goes
round and round and, as I have
shown in the foregoing article, we
come out on the red side of the ledger,
80 far as we are able to dispose of our
commodities. But we are parting with
something infinitely more valuable
and at an alarming rate. This is
nothing less than controlling in
terest in our major industries.
For the willy foreigner is playing
Secretary Hulls game only halfway.
He dumps his goods at low-duty rates
on the American market, in competi-
fion with American goods, and then,
rs the astonishing decline in our
favorable balance of trade proves, he
turns to cheaper markets, developed
Ance the war, for cotton and other
materials. For the money he receives
for the goods sold us, he is buying our
blue-chip stocks and securities. No
broker would dispute the statement
None would deny that the recent 20
point drop in the market was caused
primarily, if not solely, by selling on
the London exchange. The British
aye the largest foreign holders of
American securities and the British
can cause panic in Wall Street any
day that they choose.
Figures Support Contention.
But mere statements will not serve
b these articles; we must have fig
ures in support. We will obtain them
from sources open to Secretary Hull,
namely. the Division Of Foreign Crops
and Markets Of the Department Of
Horticulture, Bureau OF Foreign and
domestic Commerce Of the Depart
fnent OF Commerce and the Treasury
departments statistics of capital

instead, according to admittedly in
complete estimates made by the
Federal Reserve bulletin, foreigners
in October, 1886, owned at least $6,-
500 900, 900 worth of American COM
mon and preferred stocks direct and
other investments, besides having on
deposit $500, 100000 in short-term
capital. It is probably that. with the
continued sale of gold to the United
States, the total is now nearer So
600 100000 than $8.OO0 100000.
Department of Commerce figures
indicate that 10 per cent of all Ameri-
can long-term investments are held
by European nations. This is equiva-
lent to a vast and possibly dangerous
financial interest in American in
dustry.
Great Britain the mendcant among
the nations. which can neither pay the
$4,000 100000 owed us on the war
debt nor purchase our goods under
Secretary Hulls bargain-rate tariff
plan, still can command some u per
cent OF foreign investments in this
country. Canada, which must be
assisted, through trade agreements,
to dispose Of her pulp. paper, agri-
cultural and other products in COM
petition with our own, yet possesses
20 per cent Of foreign-owned American
securities. Great Britain, Canada and
France together hold So per cent Of
such investments.
War Danger Greater.
No opportunity is afforded in this
discussion OF international trade for
even brief analysis of our neutrality
act. but should like to interject 4
single question at this point:
If an estimated $4,50O,O00,000 Of
American securities held by foreigners
in 1914 created economic suction
sufficient to draw us into the war,
will the class in elementary arithmetic
calculate how quickly and how far
$500 100000 will take us into the
trenches now, all neutrality" acts
Notwithstanding?
There IS evidence that the admins
tration was secretly concerned as
long as two years ago over our failure

commodity markets. It therefore
recommended and Congress approved
an amendment to the A. A. A. which
would turn over to Secretary Wallace
80 per cent of all customs duties COL
lected in the previous year. This
money was to be used to purchase
and export agricultural surpluses at
the world price, making up the
difference to the American producer
in case world prices fell below domes-
tic prices, to shunt the surpluses into
welfare and relief channels and to
develop new industrial uses for farm
crops through scientific research.
What happened?
Money Piles Up.
In two years, Secretary Wallace had
$201 100000 thrown into his lap and
spent but $115,000, 900 for the author
lied purposes, including all admins
trative expenses. The present fiscal
year brought him $120,000,0o0. With
an unexpended balance of $85, 900 900,
he now had more than $205, 100000
