farm products. These we do not need
The riddle will be partially solved
by our selling manufactured goods
to South America, carrying her food
products to Europe and bringing
back such things as glassware, olive
OIL linen anG china.
Europe to Pay Cash
Europe must increase her use of
South American food. She will have
to pay for it in cash rather than by
the barter method of the past few
years. This additional cash should
help to solve South Americas prob
lem of finding the necessary buying
power to purchase American goods.
Moreover, the United States will pro-
badly contribute substantially by eX-
tending credits to South America
through our Export Imbort bank. We
have already granted substantial
credits to Brazil and other Latin
American countries.
Biggest gain IN our world COM
nerce will be in our manufactured
goods These were the type Of goods
that Germany was selling in South
America and in other parts Of the
world Japan and the United States
will grab most Of Germany's and
some Of Frances and Britain's form
er trade in such products as cutlery
bicycles, railroad equipment, chemi-
Gals, machinery, high grade textiles
and the like We should have the
upper hand over Japan particularly
in the case of the most highly
specialized manufactures, because
Japan's products are cheap in quail
ty and narrow in range Of selection.

immediate big increase in our eX
ports Of farm products-not even
cotton.
Shipyards at Capacity
Our seaports particularly along
the Gulf, will see great activity.
Shipyards, already busy in turning
out Warships, will be pushed to ca
pacity in the building of new cargo
boats. Furthermore, if the neutrality
act is amended much Of the world
trade going to neutral nations will
be carried in American boats The
German and British navies will know
that American ships will not be
carrying even a loaf Of bread to the
belligerent nations. Shippers will like
this additional safety of our vessels
and will find the resulting low war
risk insurance on American ships
attractive. Hence, busy days are
ahead for the American merchant
marine. l doubt, however, if this ac-
tive era for our shipping will con-
tinue after the war is over.
AS | arrive home from my trip
to the Orient, l am convinced of one
thing: Japan and China can together
create the most formidable indus
trial machine in the world They can
make and export products at I'M
believably low prices They can
sweep the goods Of every other ma
;tion with the possible exception of
Russia, off the seas. The only way
|other nations can compete with ia
pan and China is by entirely chang
ing their present economic set-up.
Self Sufficiency a Snare
[ am very bullish on the United
States for the next few years, but
sooner or later we are going into
a real depression. AS l reflect on
living habits and standards in my
home town of Wellesley, they seem
SO artificial and wasteful that 1 won
der how long they can continue We
are all living in FOOLS paradise with
no regard for what the future has
in store for our children.
BY our policy of isolation and our
walls Of tariff, are We rot following
the Chinese? The reason China is
so weak today is because her people
felt sufficient unto themselves and
refused to compete with the rest OF
the world in scientific methods and
progressive learning. We are as
foolish in reducing hours and fixing
prices as were the Chinese il their
belief that because they were the
greatest oldest, and richest nation
they had nothing to fear l wonder
if some day there may be a parallel
in our histries. We expect to save
ourselves by a great tariff wall just
as the Chinese tried to save them
selves by a great stone wall.
Japan our Industrial Enemy"
The Japanese have kept their
heads and have not tried such silly
notions AS a result, I think that
they can, with the help Of China,
control the manufactures Of the
world. The United States can keep
out foreign goods with a tariff wall;
but our wall can not prevent the
japanese from flooding our custom
ers in South and Central America
and in other world markets with
manufactured goods
America, to save herself must
change her attitude toward union
labor, price fixing hour limitations
and the like. I wish Frances Perkins
had been with me on my trip. I am
not appealing for manufacturers I
know their faults. l am advocating
that we cut out all artificial stuff and
be ready to compete with the rest
] of the world now and in the future.
