The big Nazi planted guns awaited only the word of Hitler to loose a storm of steel into the rock fortress of Gibraltar.

Lose Foreign Markets. Vftiea, foreign, markets for surplus products, principally food, faded away. jnu. 193Q .and th cpunt.ry, qs faced with one of its most vexing problems, "economy of abundance, the nations leaders cast about for a solution. People actually faced starvation while living in the midst of plenty. Jobs and sayings were gone and while foodstuffs rotted in the fields for want of market, crops were plowed under, acreage restricted and marginal land retired from cultivation, in a desperate attempt to set the wheels of industry rolling again. Scientific agriculture added to the countrys woes by increasing the quantity of farm products with less labor, thereby further up the unemployment building roster. J Foreign trade agreements failed to, save the countrys $800,000,000 volume to them, because the purchasing nations were more interested then in making themselves and were eliminating all imports. possible Search for Solution. Vice President Wallace, then secretary of agriculture, sums up the situation as it appeared then to authorities in the capitol: First, we had to find a market for farm surpluses, and we knew that a surplus at one price might be at another. Second, we a sell-odidnt like the spectacle of people we hungry from too little food whileSenwere worrying over too much. ator Vandenberg proposed to solve the first problem by sending our surpluses abroad and selling them at a lower price there, but some of us thought that if we were going in for system wed better do it a at home and let our own needy have the benefit. Studies by nutritional experts revealed some startling facts. Working people were paying only between 10 and 12 cents per meal average while those millions on relief could only allot half of that amount for their food.

The conservatives like it, he said, gulping down some of Brazils surplus coffee from a paper cup, because it goes through the regular channels of trade and spreads its benefits all along the line. They feel safer about it that way than if the government rhad set up its own machinery of hahdlihg. In the Second place, they like it because it creates purchasing power for things they feel it a disgrace for any American to have to do without, like nourishing food. And in the third place and you hear more about this now than when the plan started they regard it as a hedge against trouble in the future. Youll find them talking already about whats going to happen when this war activity ends. Improve Distribution. The liberals like it because they regard it. as a. new kind of money, and they have an obscure feeling tickets that these" give the needy an access to the kind of wealth they most need to have. Also, they are pleased because the plan makes it possible to distribute certain types of things that cant effectively be given away. . They think our present system of distribution needs remodeling, and theyd far rather have government money spent for the better distribution of food than for buying and hoarding it while people go hungry. t d As for the man, he likes it because it makes sense to him.
