Prosperity Through War A Widener Explains U S Rise
A B Widener of Philadelphia argues the Spanish American War sped American prosperity. He says the conflict came after pressure from yellow journalism and politicians, briefly boosting industry, wages, and national prestige. He contrasts American methods and education with Britain, noting American workers’ intelligence, trust-led industry, and global competitiveness. He cites England’s decay, thrift differences, and the United States as the world’s leading producer and exporter. He also critiques British consumption, sugar use, and economic dependence, concluding with a local note on licensing peddlers and hawkers reflecting broader policy issues.
