ECONOMIC ISOLATION
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT’S MEASURES TRADE SERVICE DESTROYED. LONDON, June 22. The News-Chronicle’s special representative declares: “Mr Roosevelt’s dismissal of 80 per cent of the commercial attaches at the American Embassies and Consulates, and the closing of eight commercial offices in Europe, is the first deliberate step towards a policy of economic isolation. It destroys the American overseas trade service, which was built with infinite care under Mr Hoover’s direction, and which was recognised as the world’s most efficient business getter. It is estimated to have brought at least 50,000,000 dollars worth of direct trade to America.”
