States goods brought across the
border. At the same time. prices
of Canadian goods which are
exported will be cut across-the-
board and Canada hopes this
will sharply increase her sales
abroad.
We have achieved our un-
matched record of dollar stabil-

which would have crushed the
currency Of a nation not so
rich, resourceful or welded to
basic financial conservatism as
ours.
BY achieving this, we have
contributed nightly to the re-
storation of economic pros
perity throughout the free
world. BY making our dollar
the pivot Of the Vests cur
rencieS. we have given our
allies strength on which to
draw. BY giving and lending
billions upon billions to ma

the free world and we laid the
basis for the prosperity which
Europe, particularly. enjoys to-
day.
We have done this with our
powerful. durable dollar and
