Spain annexed to the United States in this decade. a country just about equal to Spain. If we had had in these ten years sixteen or seventeen millions included within our outline. we should have said we had greatly added to our markets. If we could take to ourselves in South America 17.000.000 people on that eastern coast and say we will furnish them with that trade (and right here at our own doors we have annexed it). we should think it a fine increase. and yet we are bringing right in by our natural growth and by immigration an addition of 30 per cent. in this decade. and there must be an addition of 30 per cent. to our manufacturing facilities in order to supply those people. Now. why be so hungry about a foreign trade?
