"A telling victory in Africa could be frustrated and undermined if the U.S. by rejecting reciprocal trade principles, announced to her allies that she was still unwilling to accept the realities of economics and to stand shoulder to shoulder with her partners in the regenération of civilization." Pointing out that in the midst of war the American people are required to take their first step toward laying the foundation of the postâ€"war era, she declared: "All nations have admitted that future international relations must rest on the acceptance of economic inâ€" terdependence. Also there is general agreement that the catastrophe of this war and the chaos preceding it were largely created by the narrowness of the nations who persisted in clinging to the theories of economic nationalâ€" ism while economic processes were obâ€" viously global. Whatever promises the United Nations have made to each other‘ and to the world, they have all included pledges to work for internaâ€" tional development of trade and indusâ€" try‘ as the only permanent rock on wlmih to rebuild postâ€"war social strucâ€" ture."

Civilian Defense News" The significance of this first year of their service is not the fact that a group of new trains has been in existence for twelve months. It is that the new "400" Streamliners have meant additional transportation for Uncle Sam; that the new dieselâ€"powered units already have behind them a million miles of service; finally, that each of these power units and each of these trains shall continue to carry on in the cause of Freedom. In war as in peace "North Western" serves America. The "400" Streamliners now enter their second year of active duty on the Transportation Frontâ€"and do sot proudly.
