The article notes deflation is milder than feared as bank clearings lag about 20 percent below last year, sales volumes not much lower, and unemployment rising mainly due to strikes. It cites global recovery as uneven, urges U.S. aid rather than isolation, and explains price resistance from high production costs and uneven farm prices.
The text argues that unemployment harms prices and that people who will work for wages aligned with food costs can reduce prices. It notes a large potential volume of business now versus five years ago and suggests that businessmen who push products, keep them well advertised, can prosper despite economic strain.

Many fail in business by becoming cranky when hurried and asked for speed, turning others away. The athlete’s imperturbability offers a model for handling rush moments in work.
The author argues that while some nations like Turkey and Russia may endure more wars during development, the advanced world must prevent aggression as Germany did. If powers seeking justice unite, a future war of conquest by a civilized state can be deterred and headed off.
