Summary of the condition of U.S. trade failure in the Pacific field
Harold Bolce uses government statistics to show that the United States is not succeeding in foreign markets, contrary to popular belief. The United States’ “portentous defeat commercially in South America, Oceania and Asia” is detailed. Bolce argues that the U.S. has not managed to dominate markets on the Atlantic side of South America; therefore, he does not agree that the Panama Canal will guarantee trade success in Pacific markets.
