Turning Point Of Policy.

respect the integrity and neutrality OF
Switzerland may or may not calm
Swiss fears of a German offensive
through their country against Central
France. The promise is perhaps an
other move in Hitler's diplomatic at
as to get free hand in Central-East-
ern Europe. And it is on this point
that the problem of British policy
really turns
Premier Stanley Baldwin said re-
Gently in the House of Commons that
no European war could be localized.
Lord Plymouth, in the House Of Lords,
called isolation a physical impossible

Britain to keep out Of European en-

that isolation means neutrality. that
neutrality means assertion of neutral
rights and that the United States,
though distant from Europe. found
this policy impractical in 1917.
Besides, European belligerents
would be likely to insist on ration

the allies rationed the neutrals during
the Great War, thereby reducing Hol-

GERMAN TRADE POLICIES

cost in Liverpool. Then, II she sells
the unneeded surplus Of that cotton to
Holland. she has, Of course, TO sell It
for what it will fetch, H. e., considerably
less than the American price.
Yet Germany finds it advantageous
to do this, because, in reality, she
does not have to disburse anything.
But what worries the Turks Is this:
How long can Germany continue this
unbridled imitation? Will she not,
soon or late. have to devalue the mark
officially and get back to normal trade
relations? And if, meanwhile, Turkey
has lost all her other customers, Ger
many's financial collapse will mean
Turkeys ruin also.
Not long ago Germany proposed to
Turkey vast plan Of irrigation which
would probably double the Turkish
cotton output. German capital, Ger
man machinery and German engineers
would do the work, and Germany
would take payment entirely in cotton
over long period Of years.
No final answer has yet been given
to this proposal, but I am informed
that it probably will be rejected. It
would place the Turkish cotton in
dustry wholly at Germany's mercy,
because once Germany ceased abb
sorbing the major part of the cotton
crop Turkish cotton growers would
be ruined. There Is no other re-
munerative market for an increased
olltrut of Turkish cOttoO
Building Up Capital Class.
The development of the new Turkey
under the leadership of Kemal Ataturk
could undoubtedly advance very fast
with German aid. Until very recent
years Turkey had no middle class and
hence no native capital. But, little by
little, capitalist class is being built
up, and it appears to be the determi.
nation of the Kemalist government to
keep foreign capitalists from getting .
strangle-hold on the country.
Such plan means necessarily that
progress will be relatively slow. But it
may be better for Turkey not 20 push
the material development of the coun-
try faster than the education of the
masses warrants. Secular schools, it
must be remembered, have been in
existence only few years. Previously,
Turkish children learned to recite the
Koran, an6 for most of them that was
the extent of the schooling Today
primary non-religious instruction is
compulsory throughout Turkey, and
a generation is growing up which looks
at the world through the windows OF
Western culture.
Twenty years hence the mentality
Of the Turkish nation will be almost
completely Europeanized. Oriental
fatalism will have been in large part
eradicated, and the indifference with
which the Turk of the past regarded
the flight Of time will have given way
to the impatient eagerness for progress
that marks the Occidental mind.
BY that time it is conceivable that
Turkey will have built up capital re-
serves which will enable her to finance
her own development. Such at least is
the plan on which the present rulers
of the country appear to be working.

for three more years the Spe-
VI cial bargaining powers under
L which President Roosevelt and
Secretary Hull have been reviving
international commerce, some critics
ing themselves why should the main
efforts Of the reciprocal trade program
be concentrated on this continent,
most Of the new pacts and those at
present under study being with Latin
American countries.
The answer Is simple. There are at
present five great regions in the world
with an abundance of raw materials
and a large population, capable Of
absorbing the surplus of manufactured
goods which the leading industrial
powers offer for trade. But only one
Of the five Is still open to free COM
petition.
With Russia closed from within,
China falling slowly, but certainly, to
Japanese penetration. India monopo-
lized by Great Britain and Africa
long ago divided up and parceled out
to q few European countries, Latin
America is the last of the world great
treasure houses.
The United States Is the major
industrial country which is closest to
that new Eldorado and which is,
geographically and economically, best
fitted to supply 1t with manufactured
articles in exchange for its natural
products.
Only Open Market.
The 20 Latin American republics
on the other side of the Rio Grande
and in the Caribbean constitute today
to-day more than ever-the only
open market for the surplus output
Of the United States.
They occupy two-thirds Of the
Western Hemisphere. They are already
the home of over hundred million
people, whose numbers are increasing
constantly. They are one OF the
mightiest reservoirs Of wealth in hu-
man history.
Stretching from the North Temper
ate to the Antarctic regions, they run
the gamut Of climates They possess
In staggering amounts copper and
silver, tin and iron, nitrates and oil
They produce lumber and fruits, cattle
and sheep, coffee and sugar, wheat
and corn enough to supply half the
world.
As q trade market and as an invest
ment field. these 20 republics Offer
unsurpassable advantages to the
United States. They are countries
which, on the one hand, have hardly
been exploited up to now. and, on the
other, have not as yet developed Their
own industries so as to satisfy Their
ever-growing needs. They possess
everything that could be desired in ar
