Credit and Trade Debates Over US War Goods Exports
A periodical objects to the United States sending goods to Europe in exchange for paper promises. It notes that up to a recent $200,000,000 loan to Britain, payments have come as folded securities or worthless obligations. Since 1914 around five billion dollars in American bonds and mortgages have returned from Europe. The piece warns that unless drains ease, the US could become the world’s sole creditor and foreign bonds are funding war materials and food, potentially cutting exports. The government may intervene to curb food exports.
