Our Trade with Brazil Opens New Global Ties
The reciprocity treaty with Brazil begins April 1, boosting future deliveries and possibly a New York to Brazilian ports steam line. The pact benefits both nations, expanding US manufacturing and agriculture while allowing Brazil free coffee and sugar imports. Current trade shows Brazil imports around 60 million from us and 11 million in return, with Europe sending 20 million in cotton goods and only 0.5 million from the US, creating a US trade deficit of 49 million that should adjust under the new terms. Historical Cuban iron and coal exchanges illustrate rapid trade growth once opening occurs, with Cuba becoming a coal exporter as American coal dominates in parts of the West Indies.
