What is this but to quarrel with the laws of nature V These laws have assigned to an extensive range of industries carried on in the -United States a high scalo of return. far in excess of what Europe can command. to a few others a return or a. scale not exceeding the Etropean proportion. American enterprise would engage in all deparbuerits alike. and obtain upon all the high rewards which nature has assigned only to some. Hore we find tho real moaning of the "inability" of Americans to compete with the "pauper labor" of Europe. They cannot do so and at the same time secure the American rate of return on their work. The irratility no doubt exists. but. it is one created. not by the drawbacks. but by the execptiorrl advantages of their position.
