intentional trade
WAR DUE AFTER
CLOSE OF WAR
The advlceB from London stating
that British interests have contract
ed to purchase more than half of
Australia's zinc output, not only dur
ing the war but for ten years after
ward, throw striking light upon what
are to be the applications of the
economic policies agreed upon at the
recent PariB conference of representa
tives of the allies.
The avowed purpose of this agree
ment is to put out of business as far
ns possible the zinc smelting indus
tries of countries which are enemies
of the entente powers and this proof
of a resolution to carry on a trade
war, after the war of armies and
navies is ended, must give neutral
nations food for reflection.
It is plain warning to them to pro
vide for their commercial security even
after the war Is over, lest they be
Involved in trado wars In which they
have nothing to gain and much to
lose. It adds powerfully to the argu
ment for the prompt enactment of the
pending indutsrial legislation in this
country.
Among tho most important of the
measures now before congress Is the
Webb bill, permitting American ex
porters of metal and manufactured
articles to combine for the purpose of
engaging in export trade.
An inquiry addressed by the edi
tor of this paper to President Wilson,
asking for his position on the subject,
brought an answer printed on page
880 of our August 26 issue, which
shows that the whole weight of the
national administration will be thrown
In favor of such legislation.
The recently published plea of
Chalarman Hurley of the federal in
dustrial commission for support of the
Webb bill is indicative of the fact
that the federal government Is anx
ious to bring about commercial ns
well as military preparedness. It is
only fair that American manufactur- I
ers be enabled to engage in Interna
tional trade under the same rule as ]
foreign manufacturers. Guns find
commerce go together. We cannot
demand a fair deal without being able
■. ■ ■■■ ■ ■ -- ■ ■■■■■■ i
to enforce our demands.
The sympathetic co-operation of
the government with business will
make the United States supreme in
the commercial world. The public
lias gradually come to a realization
that “big business” does not neces
sarily mean “bad business.” Modern
international trade competition de
mands combination and organization,
and It is most fortunate that our
highest government officials realize
that fact.
Every European government per
mits cartels and syndicates which re
sult in strength sufficient to compete
in foreign markets and It was by
Just such methods that Germany was
forging ahead to industrial suprem
acy when the war broke out. When
pence is declared, not only that coun
try but every other will adopt the
some methods again. The United
States cannot afford to attempt to
enter into competition for foreign
trade unless our metal producers and
manufacturers can enjoy the same
advantages.—Mining and Engineering
