Could other countries which had to import raw materials increase the purchasing capacity of their citizens without injuring their commercial “balance if they did not succeed in exporting more than they consumed ? assisting one th And so on and on—simply another expression of the uneasiness with which r-sighted foreigners view the growth of the American Colossus. | Fortunate Amer: Happy, busy, And yet— We h weening drosperous, 1 thing to umbition.
