The Old Cycle of Debt
Cancellation and
Subsidies

prohibits private U. S. loans to
nations in default on loans to the
u. S. government). Another is the
ioWering or removal of tariffs and
subsidies. Still another is the es-
tablishment of stable exchanges :"
In thus asking his fellow country
men TO- pay such a heavy price for
accelerating foreign trade, Mr.. Lief
fingwell did not take the trouble to
draw UP balance sheet and demon
strate that this country would get
equivalent benefits from such
procedure.
THE most dangerous proposal of
Il all is the suggestion to open the
great domestic market of the United
States to competitive products from
low living standard countries.
A vastly more discriminating
formula is that mentioned by the
sagacious Bernard M. Baruch, who
proposed that we offer to impose no
import duties on products from those
nations which maintain wage and
living standards equal to our own.
Such procedure would place the
onus of tariffs where it belongs,
namely on backward sweatshop
nations which Cypress their own ma
tionals with meager wages and de-
pressed social conditions.
Desirable as the building of bet
ter world is, it is sheer folly to start
out with the fallacious assumption
that the coolies of Asia and the
peasants of Europe are now at the
American level of material wellbeing.
Instead of continuing the same
old futile songs about subsidies and
debt forgiveness, we would be more
helpful to other nations if we en-
courage them to follow the American
example, and aid their own workers
with increased quantities of mechani-
cal energy and superior tools, as we
have done so effectively in develop
ing our own worldwide economic
leadership.

happen. if what is rumored
