By 1932, based on gold value, our percentage of the total world exports had dropped from 146 percent in 1929 to 122‘ percent. Our proportion of total | world imports declined from 11. percent in 1929 to 95 percent in 1932, In 1936 our percentage of world trade was 11.4 percent for exports | and 109 for imports. This shows how our proportion of world ex- { ports has decreased while our per- centage share of world imports has increased to the detriment of our domestic industries and to the enhancement of foreign products. | The figures show that our 193 foreign trade position was im- proved less than one-half of one! percent over the 1932 level, but this improvement was due to the increase in imports since our rela-| tive export condition is well below 1932, as is also the situation for | 1937, | The reciprocal trade aar(‘emonl' act, passed by a rubber-stamp Con- gress, gives the President power| among other things to negotiate | foreign trade treaties without thej advice and consent of the Scna((‘ ntrary to the United States Con-| tution; to raise or lower rates of | duty 50 percent without definite| standards established by Congress for such action; to fix the level of rates and to grant this preferential rate to all nations. | 6 BARRIERS ‘INCREASED’ These powers were granted to th(‘ President for three years but, byl the language of the bill, the life| of the treaties can be indefinite or for any term the President may ap- prove. Thus we may be committed to a foolish, detrimental policy in a treaty for years to come. It is impossible to separate the effects of the agreements already made and of other New Deal poli- cies, such as price raising and re- striction of production in agricul- ture and industry, and fiscal and | monetary policies. The agreements were supposed | to break down trade barriers. It is | obvious from the figures that these| barriers have increased, while other nations have improved their posi- | tions at the expense of the United States. This act permits the lower- ing of our tariffs without reference to domestic production costs and| thereby jeopardizes all American agriculture, Jabor and industry; un- dermines the American wage level| and threatens our American stan- dard of living.

The Royal Canadian air force is composed of 218 officers and 1,762 of other ranks, plus 84 officers and 752 other ranks in the militia. In | recent years, most of the appro- priations for Canada’s armed forces Canada says she would allow no invasion of the United States across her soil, just as President Roosevelt says Am- erica would stand for no threat to Canada. But how could Canada prevent invasion? Here a Canadian Press writer re- views the armed strength and defense preparations of the Dominion. At present 177 new planes are in the process of delivery.
