May. 15,— Roger W. Babson wea today asked whether or not there has been any erceptible improvement in HSuro- pean conditions since the publication of the Dawes report, “There is a distinotly better feel- ing In Burope today, better than has existed for four yonrs,” replied the statistician. “The Dawes committeo certainly did a splendid piece of work and aro entitled to the world's grati- tude. Tho nations have not yet for- mally accepted the report and France or Germany hold out for minor con- cessions, but with all the other na- tions behind {t the prospects are for its acceptance without any important changes, Tho market trend of France's securities indicates ‘very clearly that sho will co-optrate, “Tho adopition of the Dawes re- port means that the United States will be called upon to loan large sums abroad and endorse to a certain extent Germany's obligations. This in itself is not a bull point, It is also to bo remembered that the Dawes plan will set Europe up in business Qgain and enable her to compote with us to a much greater extent than at present. We should not, therefore, spend all our time helping to get Hurope rehabilitated, only to leave our own manufacturers and wage workers to suffer from this very necessary commercial and eco- nomic readjustment,” The long swing results of the ‘Dawes plan as Babson sees thom will be somewhat as follows: “Imports into the United States will greatly increase and if we are not prepared for them our own mills and factories will be shut down cor- respondingly. “To offset this wo can increase our mass production to make up for one loss in specialty manufac. turing. Tet me make this point clear, “Manufacturing can be divided into two main groups, *vi: aM those articlas where labor is the principal factor, such as wearing apparel, household furnishings, nov- elties, ete; and (2) those articles where capital’ts the principal fac- tor, such as structural steel prod- ucts, automobiles, agricultural im- plements, eto, “When Europe gets settled again, we must expect to Jose much of our ‘labor goods’ markets: South America will again get her special. ties from Germany, France and England, and we in the United States will likewise {mport very heavily of such specialties. We, however, should retain our markets for standard high capital cost prod- ucts, “Tho United States and Canada should retain control of tho manu; facture of such goods, Wo should wane 4 not only supply our own needs, but those of Europe, South America and China as well, We should be wilh ing to lose some of our specialty business; but mass production we should push harder than. ever, and not yield on it one inch to any other nation.” e U. of W.R.
