...firms are topheavy and must be scaled down. As he often does, Mr. Baldwin took his text from the iron & steel industry which is the basis of his family fortune, and spoke with a certain rugged candor thus: "I am going with my own trade, the steel trade, through deep waters. Most of what I had was in that industry, and for every shilling I had when I took office I have something under a penny today.* . . . There is only one way out.

...itself a practical organization for the prevention of war, and at present the Pan-European Union is becoming the subject of considerable speculation. Geographically and commercially Europe is so closely bound that its lack of a congress for the treatment of international problems and for the propagation of deep rooted amity such as America possesses theoretically in the Pan American Union has dangerously inverted its national and economic consciousness. Again, it realizes the menace that Russia once stabilized will present with its deter, mined propagandist program for the conversion of all nations to communism, or the power that...
