We are importing goods from
all over the world at the rate of
81 billion year and paying out
another billion for tourist travel,
so that we are scattering SO
billion every year throughout the
world, which could be acquired
directly, or by exchange, to pur-
chase American goods. This is
far more than sufficient to pay
for the surpluses of wheat, cot
ton and tobacco which America
must export.
There is also some tendency on
the part of the British to blame the
United States for the reduction Of
their exports to US because the de-
velopment of a buyers market here
resulted in less demand for British
goods. But the total personal con-
sumption expenditures in this coun-
try is approximately the same as
it was in 1948. The market is still
here, but British goods are more
difficult to sell because there are no
longer American shortages, and the
British cannot meet American
prices.
THE sooner the British face their
Il fund damental weakness, the
sooner they can solve their prob
lem. 1t seems to me we are giving
now to the limit of our ability. One
of my objections to the ECA
figures is that we have accepted the
planned economy of the British
socialists and tried to provide the
exact figure which they need to
carry out their detailed economic
plan.

mands upon this country. l would
not interfere with or be concerned
with the internal politics of Britain,
and it would then be up to the
British to adjust their economy to
the facts of world life and the
amount of aid we fix.
l have every sympathy with
the British position, but l do
object to their calm assumption
that we owe them a gift in a
sufficient amount to enable the
government to carry out in detail
plans they have made.
