UOTISM IN
ST SENSE AS
VT CONDITIONS
* /
The 81 moods Manufacturing Co..
of Fltchburg, Mom., has the following
to say of business conditions in
the United States:
We bellere In our country. We
have faith that the United States
of America 11! continue to he the
most prosperous nation In the world.
Although panicky people pinch tight
the might dollar, fearing disaster
for this country on account of the
European war, our crops are th%
most bountiful in years. These
crops must be harvested. The mills
will grind the wheat and corn; the
railroads will transport the flour
and meal; starring nations will find
some way of getting these and the
wealth received* in return will be
spent at home.
As 5 per cent of our country's *-*
products are all that are exported,
we are likely to suffer a treat deal
more from the abnormal tightening
up of the purse strings of our merour
manufacturers, and oar
consumers, than from loss of Eur>pean
business.
Lot us all hare faith in aur country.
Let us go on in a normal way.
We are confident of peace in our
States. We are practically sure of
a larger market from outside than
wo hove ever had before. If we can
supply the wants of South America ^
at this crisis in European conditions
thon wc have builded a new outlet
for our products. A market hitherto
European and one estimated at one
billion dollars a year in Yolume will
be our6. It la an opportune moment
try to tako advantage of thlB market
and to send their real men to make
business connections, establish agencies
and acquaint their houses with
the wants of South Americans.
Their orders should be filled understanding^
in accordance with South
American ideas, with the Intention
of pleasing the trade heretofore going
to European nations.
We believe that now Is the time
for patriotism in its broadest sonse
?that Is, to take advantage of present
conditions by pnshlng ahead
everything American, demanding
American made goods for ourselves
and offering them to meet the requirements
of our South American
friends in such a way as to supply
their needs from their own hemisphere.
Let us all work together in a natural,
normal, and sensible way. Then
we nave lann to DOllOTO thmt In tlx
months from now the wheels of in*
duRtry will all be moving and this
country will be on the eve of a
period of prosperity the like of which
few Americans have ever eeez\.
