The Record critiques Secretary Hull for urging sweeping tariff reductions while France and Britain pursue strategic protectionism. It argues such ideas threaten U S recovery, ignores trade realities, and could disadvantage the United States as France strengthens currency and gold backing amid postwar debt and deflation concerns. It warns American negotiators to resist proposals that could hurt exports and living standards.
