Economic Trends in Germany and in the United States
NO industrial nation has been more severely affected by the current business depression than have Germany and the United States; yet the former is a nation burdened with heavy external indebtedness and poor in important raw materials and foodstuffs, while the latter is now a great creditor nation in the world and the most abundantly supplied with foodstuffs and raw materials.
